| Description | Chiaroscuro lighting generally involves the emphasis of oppositions and transitions between light and shadow. Accentuating areas of light and shadow releases the spectator from the coloration of the objects, joining together in a double perception the juxtaposition of areas of brightness and darkness and the simultaneous presence of colored areas. The abstraction of what is depicted and the integration of the visual layers previously separated from one another--gray scale and colors, light value and color value--are linked together. The consequence is often to isolate objects from the space surrounding them. |
