"Stephen Antonakos has been a pioneer in the use of neon in fine art for nearly forty years. Having "discovered" neon in 1960, he quickly made it his primary medium. His non-objective, geometric work has involved sculpture and environments; large-scale architectural commissions, both interior and outdoors; wall panels that combine neon with paint and metal leaf; and, most recently, meditation rooms and chapels. Antonakos "draws" with light and, uniquely, uses it to define space. He sees neon also as a source of poetry, attempting in his works to evoke spirituality, to create "the possibility for a kind of higher consciousness." He manages to turn viewers of his art into participants in a new kind of abstract experience of light."--BOOK JACKET.
