4 -12 August 2013
Rosalind McLachlan has been selected to take part in 95%, an international artists’ residency considering the 95% of the universe which is apparently out there but currently out of sight. This 95%, which is made up of 27% Dark Matter and 68% Dark Energy, remains mysterious even to physicists.
Can imagination and creativity help us make sense of the inexplicable, or create the inexplicable? Is it faith that makes us believe in the intangible and if so, how can that sit comfortably with scientific thinking? Participating artists will be exploring such questions alongside physicists from Durham University.
95% is hosted by ACA in collaboration with Migrating Art Academies.
