Opening Reception
February 2, 2017, 6-9pm
This event will showcase the exhibit's installation as well as an artist-led participatory artwork.
"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress giving birth to evolution."
This group exhibition calls into consideration the relationship between art and science, believing that both fields are built upon similar fundamentals – derived from curiosity and questioning the human perception of reality. Methodologies and thought experiments used to investigate the components of the universe run parallel with the artistic creative practice to challenge our constructs of reality. S.P.A.C.E coalesces the artistic and scientific investigations into the search for knowledge and understanding through human perception.
The artists in this exhibition explore processes of understanding and navigation through the different faculties of science, particularly physics and biology. The works in this exhibition will embrace the fundamentals of scientific exploration–imagination and creativity–through diverse artistic practices such as painting, video, community engagement, illustration, drawing, mixed media, temporal installation, and sculpture. As artists and individuals with a multitude of interests, this is a visual exercise/exploration in the unlimited capacity of human curiosity and ability to make connections across disciplines.
