Turning on the Lights with Bernardi Roig

Intersections artist Bernardi Roig came to the Phillips in October to install his works for NO/Escape. “All of of Roig’s figures are crouched, strangled, twisted, in pain…with eyes open or closed, blinded, they’re shouting yet unable to communicate,” says Senior Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art Vesela Sretenovic.

Bernardi Roig’s Night Lights

There’s one good thing about the days getting shorter: there’s more time to enjoy Bernardi Roig’s sculptures in all of their illuminated glory. Beautiful as they are during the day, Intersections artist Roig‘s works comprised of white plaster figures and fluorescent lights are especially captivating at night. Here’s a look at the works after the sun has gone down.
