International
Association Of Quantum Artists (IAQA)
Present their first Visual Arts Exhibition, ‘Beyond The Material World’
CONCEPT:
IAQA’s aim is to
explore the art/science interface by participating in activities which aim to
transform human understanding of the world in which we live. At present these
include theories and philosophies incorporating sustainability, quantum theory,
parallel worlds, Multiverse, higher dimensional spaces and cosmology.
The IAQA is a new
contemporary art collective, based in the UK, comprising of Jean Harlow
(Founder Artist) and Diana Ali (Curator Artist). The collective was initiated
to unite artists whose work explores intuitively explores alternative visions and
possible realities. This first show will feature work which explores the
statement ‘Seeing Beyond the Material World’. It aims to be inspirational,
encouraging others to reach out towards more positive and sustainable futures.
We are taking the view that art can provide a platform for multiple expressions
of social ideals.
FEATURED ARTISTS &
WORKS:
Seventeen artists were
selected to build an interactive space around their work’s focus. Each acts as
a separate ‘world’, but is integrated with other exhibits occupying the same
space. Together these therefore act as parallel worlds occupying the same
space, but which are perceived in different ways. The audience is invited to
participate and sometimes, to intervene within these different artistic spaces.
Exhibits move away from static or fixed theories and viewpoints. The works
considered depict transformation towards positive alternative futures: they
consider change as an ongoing transformational process.
