Still, there is something of scientists in artists, despite the fundamental difference between these two types of people. But both those and others explore the world, however, each with their own methods. Exhibition opened in London Observatory from Carsten Nicolai - as proof.
It turns out that there is not only an opportunity to believe harmony with algebra, but also the opposite process, when artists become colleagues of scientists, trying to get into the essence of complex natural processes. One of these authors is the German Karsten Nikolai, who recently presented his personal exhibition Observatory at the Ibid gallery in London.
In it, Nicolai turned to several natural processes at once, such as the formation of clouds, radiation, the physical properties of vanadium, etc. Karsten presented several installations to the public at once, revealing the essence of these phenomena.
For example, in the installation “Future past perfect pt. 04 (stratus)”Karsten Nicolai showed the nature of the formation and existence of clouds. On the screen, which is part of this work, each visitor to the gallery can see the process of injecting air masses carrying moisture, which will then become part of clouds of different shapes and sizes.
The Thermic installation shows invisible heat waves floating in space. Hot air from a streaming heat source becomes visible due to the projection of its shadow onto the wall.
In Particle Noise, Karsten Nicolai explores radiation through noise. Geiger counters, placed in a separate room for this installation, create a polyphonic sound stream that captures cosmic and terrestrial radiation.
