Freezlight
Freezlight, or light drawing, traces its modern roots to a 1949 experiment in which photographer Gjon Mili invited Pablo Picasso to draw in the air with a small light source, capturing the movement through long-exposure photography. In this technique, light becomes the drawing tool and the camera records the full gesture as a single image. In contemporary practice — including the collaborative freezlight performances created by artist Anton Balanchivadze and photographer Anton Sokolov — light-based movement functions as a spatial form of painting, where forms exist only in motion and become visible solely through the photographic process.
