YOU ARE (ON) AN ISLAND, 2011

Texas based artist Alicia Eggert, in collaboration with Mike Fleming, created a striking neon sign originally installed on Peaks Island in Maine. The sign features the word "on," which blinks rhythmically, creating a dynamic visual experience. When the word is unilluminated, a new phrase emerges: “You are an island.” This transformation suggests that we, as individuals, often feel isolated from one another, both physically and mentally, akin to islands in the sea.

About the Piece

Renowned for her captivating text-based neon creations, Alicia Eggert's work brilliantly explores the intricate relationship between humanity and language. With a powerful emphasis on political activism and social justice, Eggert's art serves as a spark for dialogue on pressing global issues. Her thought-provoking neon installations invite viewers to dive deep into their understanding of the world and challenge their beliefs. Eggert's mesmerizing art not only ignite a sense of wonder, but also transform the spaces they inhabit. Her extraordinary pieces have been celebrated in exhibitions around the world, including at venues such as the CAFA Art Museum in Beijing, the Triennale Design Museum in Milan, the Amsterdam Light Festival in Amsterdam, and Galeria Fernando Santos in Porto, Portugal, earning her international acclaim and recognition. Discover the magic and message in Alicia Eggert's art, where every glow is a guide for change and reflection.
