Point of Light
An installation of laser cut sculptures by HYBYCOZO that explores geometry, mathematics, and patterns in traditional art forms.
HYBYCOZO is a collaborative installation art collective made up of Serge Beaulieu and Yelena Filipchuk.
Their work consists of larger-than-life sculptures that celebrate the inherent beauty of geometric form and pattern, composed in ways that harmonize the experience of sculpture, light, and shadow. Much of their work draws on inspirations from mathematics, science, and natural influences and acknowledges diverse cultural influences in pattern-making and design.
In addition to the in-gallery exhibition, one of the HYBYCOZO sculptures is temporarily installed and illuminated outdoors on the museum's Front Street entry terrace.
HYBYCOZO is short for The Hyperspace Bypass Construction Zone and represents the artists ongoing journey investigating the myriad dimensions of geometry.
HYBYCOZO has permanent public artworks around the world from Dubai to Istanbul, Las Vegas, Sacramento, New Zealand, and the San Francisco Bay Area. They have shown globally in Singapore, Brazil, Australia, and Canada and have been exhibited with institutions such as The Smithsonian, Cincinnati Museum of Art, Oakland Museum of California, and Sharjah Museum of Art in the UAE.
"We love doing public art, where everyone can see and access the art. Through it we hope to bring some joy, light, and maybe a little curiosity to people’s day.”
—Serge Beaulieu
In addition to the exhibition, HYBYCOZO will also be part of the MAH's Frequency festival, September 21–24, 2023.
