Quark IV 13 May – 18 June, 2016: ‘Quark capture and visualize aeromechanics and fluid mechanics movement with lighting particle in the air, resulted from a variety of experiments in a closed environment probing the relationship between art and science. Arrangement of reflective pigment, light, glass, structures, and automated electrical components. Dry pigment, which is all but shiny dust display a different mode of suspending and shaping. The reflective dust in either air or water, shaped by wind, turbulence or heat, and beaming light into it. The pigment is small enough as to disappear when not illuminated.’ /
