Descriptions & Essays
Olga Timurgalieva 05-02-2019
»The Magnificent MicroBooNE: Science Through the Art of Jackson Pollock and David Smith« was produced within Ellen Sandor’s Fermilab 2016 residency. During the residency, Sandor and (art)n in collaboration with Fermilab scientists translated research data on neutrinos into the visual artworks at the intersection of art and science. Neutrinos are elementary particles which emerge through the decay of radioactive items and move with the speed of light rarely interacting with other particles. These specific properties of the particles became an inspiration for Sandor and (art)n to produce visual pieces that appeal to scientists, artists and the society. The work was first shown at the Fermilab Art Gallery in Batavia.
