A circular LED Lightbox of a digital painting. My work embodies an alliance between science and art, exploring aesthetic properties found within chemistry and the cosmos. Influenced by science fiction and portrayals of space, the unseen is made visible and false landscapes are produced. Inspired by Runge’s (2005: 53) perspective of chemistry, as a ‘sensory art’, observing and synthesising natural effects and patterns, rather than being unduly analytical. By studying hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions made observable through dye, structural formation and false colouring, these designs are presented as a static image, in an aesthetic manner. This is analogous to mankind’s exploration of space, inaugurated by the Hubble Space Telescope. Space imagery permits a vision into the unknown that humans could never otherwise experience; science links to art through the shared trait of observation, united by the image. The invention of the telescope allowed mankind to consider objects previously unseen, however, we assume these Hubble images are reality. Hubble collects digital data invisible to the eye; the finalised image requires preferences to be made regarding colour to make visible the unseen. What is actually in space is not what we see in Hubble images. My experiments with chemicals and dye create fabricated landscapes. The work no longer displays a still of reality, but a composite image displaying a fusion of chemical reactions and paint; amalgamating science and artistic licence. These fictitious realms are presented through circular lightboxes, representing a telescope, as a window to these worlds; whilst also imbuing the work with the power of technology.
