We usually identify life with processes of maintaining and transmitting information. Obviously, it is not the only interpretation. Life can be also recognized as a way in which space exists and vice versa: space might be treated as a way in which life exists
In
our daily perception we live in a four-dimensional realm. However our
relationship with the reality might be much more subtle than what our senses
offer us to believe. In the field of superstring theory, the M-theory assumes
the existence of additional dimensions hidden from our limited perception, as
well as their fluctuation and interconnectivity. What does it mean for us to
live in a multidimensional universe with our own bodies hiding manifold worlds?
The
project was inspired by a protein molecule (called the basic brick of life)
which convolute structure, on one hand-side, reminded me of Calabi-Yau manifolds
- mysterious geometric formations in which successive dimensions of our world
are “curled up” on the subatomic scale. On the other hand-side, whilst
exposed to X-rays, this structure reveals the arrangement of atoms that might be
easily mistaken for a map of the starry Sky.
The installation bridges micro and macro scales, scientific imagery with daily recordings and poetry, translating scientific ideas into the area of art as a source of personal and collective consciousness and invite intuitive examination of the unfathomable nature of our reality.
