Artistic and scientific vision
A quantum paradox
Julian Voss-Andreae creates sculptures as an interpretation of quantum physics. 'In my view of the world, you take it for granted that this thing is there and solid. Both are wrong in quantum physics. It is neither there nor solid. And it's a little shocking.'
Willing to depict this paradox, the artist uses steel plates placed in parallel.
The sculptures seem to disappear into thin air depending on where the observer is viewing the artwork.
Voss-Andreae believes quantum physics provides a worldview that is both truthful and needed–all atoms are fully integrated and inseparable. This must be recognized if we are to understand the universe.
