Interdysciplinary art exhibition
during 3rd Conference of Polish Society on Relativity

The exhibition consists of a series of amorphous artworks. The objects where made specifically to correspond (in terms of visual arts) with the subject of the conference, that is Einstein’s theory of gravity. I chose a medium that, in my opinion, is best suited to physically show the topic I was dealing with - bended, stretched and shrunk spacetime. The whole installation shows not only scientific theories and research transmitted into works of art by an artist, but also a connection between science and art, where mathematical problems and advanced research can be translated into general ideas through works of art, and where visual expressions help theories to be perfected in terms of scientific research.

The official opening of the show will take place on
September 28th, 5:20 pm
