The concept of a 360 degree painting intrigued Ray Zover but had it's challenges. A cylindrical painting would be fascinating, but the biggest issue was the size of the cylinder in relation to an abstract expressionist composition: the viewer only sees half of the painting at a time. This made it critical to assure compositional contuniuty, to maintain a relationship with every viewing angle. Zovar wanted his creation to present a new painting with each step around it.
He first tried using sunlight to infuse life into the painting. Then, he tried using a base light, which added luminosity. Finally, he incorporated RGB LED strip lights within each piece; that changed the painting's compostion.
The result is a 260 degree illusionary, abstract, one-of-a-kind, interplay of color and light. Remote-controlled LEDs change the look, color, and intensity of the piece at your whim. The light cnan be brighter or darker and change colors faster or slower. All creations are acrylic mixed-media paintings on fabric, under resin, on fiberglass forms. These are suitable for indoor or protected outdoor installation in most climates. The LEDS have a life expectancy of 50,000 hours; power draw is approximately 30 watts.
