Light, darkness and color all work together in her collection to show how they shape the way we perceive ourselves and the world around us. Visitors on Saturday were mainly drawn to the diverse uses of dancing lights and hues in all the pieces, and the strong emotions these convey. Throughout all her works, Rayner uses inanimate objects like orbs, lenses, glass and prisms to capture images that are impossible to see with the naked eye. The series Awareness of the Light shows Rayner’s ability to draw on the surrounding environment as a means to create art. In her series Afterimage, Rayner experimented with the change of light throughout the day by photographing square prisms using a Polaroid camera and different filters.
