LizWest在自然历史博物馆的新光作品中回到了愿景的基础，探索我们与色彩的基本关系。
她的令人眼花缭乱的设备为博物馆标志性的展览，“颜色和视觉”结合了350个历史标本。

这位英国艺术家最近在一座废弃的教堂里用一件令人叹为观止的反光作品吸引了我们的眼球，他打算让我们的“光谱视觉”成为“一种浸入式的明亮色彩”，为剩下的令人瞠目结舌的表演奠定了舞台，磷光蝶和大胆翅膀的蜂鸟被保留在令人叹为观止的色彩中。

正是这些自然出现的、不同颜色的例子启发了韦斯特的作品，在她的研究过程中，她被允许进入博物馆的档案。她解释说：“自然历史博物馆收藏的鸟类、昆虫和动物身上的五颜六色图案和色彩启发了这件艺术品颜色的多样性和选择。”“博物馆研究的自然色彩过程背后的科学为我的作品提供了支柱。”

除了与博物馆密切合作外，韦斯特还钻研了科学史书籍，她已经做了十年。她的大部分作品都专注于视觉系统，她把每一项新作品都视为一种光照实验，灵感来自于艾萨克·牛顿尝试将白光分解并重新组装成可见光谱的方法。

该作品由二色玻璃制成-一种在移动时会改变色调的材料-由七个迷幻的垂直棱镜组成，游客被邀请与之互动，观看里面的颜色舞蹈。随着伦敦夜幕的延长，这个展览肯定会给秋天增添光彩。

The installation is 'an immersive whack of bright colour' that sets the stage for the rest of the eye-popping show, where phosphorescent butterflies and bold-winged hummingbirds are preserved in stunning hues. Pictured: installation view

It was these examples of naturally occuring, otherwordly colours that inspired West's work, and she was allowed unique access into the Museum's archives during her research process. Pictured: installation view

'The iridescent patterns and colourings present on the birds, insects and animals in the Natural History Museum collection have inspired the variety and selection of colours in this artwork,' she explains. Pictured: installation view

Made from dichroic glass – a material that changes tone when it's moved – the work comprises seven, psychedelic vertical prisms that visitors are invited to interact with. Pictured: installation view
