Topic ‘Materialising Quantum Light’ – Investigation of light through art
by Peta Jacobs
Peta Jacobs is a Bristol-based artist, who holds a mixed media PhD from University for the Creative Arts (UCA). Through art, she investigates an experience of light from scientific positions—both its classical attributes (reflection and refraction) and its properties at the quantum level, a strange and paradoxical, non-local realm. Inspired by the theories of quantum physicist, David Bohm, Peta repeatedly examines simultaneous wave/particle duality, the entangled relationship of subject and object, hidden orders of wholeness and the edges of becoming. Appropriating the apparatus of the two-slit experiments (half-silvered mirror, dichroic materials and prisms) as creative media, she opens up a visual language of possibilities, bringing the elusive quantum properties of light to physical form.
