Tabakalera presents Art and Science

Tabakalera (ES)

Art meets Science in an immersive installation. Tabakalera and Ars Electronica kick off their collaboration and present a new artwork inspired by the known and unknown aspects of space exploration.

The artist collective Quadrature meet Astronomer Silvia Bonoli and Raul Angulo from the Donostia International Physics Center and collaborate on a new artwork. With the support of citizen science initiatives, scientific data will be transformed into an extraordinary artistic installation. This project is work in progress and the final result can be seen in September at Tabakalera as well as online at the Ars Electronica Festival.

Art meets Science in an immersive installation. Tabakalera and Ars Electronica kick off their collaboration and present a new artwork inspired by the known and unknown aspects of space exploration.

The artist collective Quadrature meet Astronomer Silvia Bonoli and Raul Angulo and collaborate on a new artwork. With the support of citizen science initiatives, the artists and scientists transform scientific data into an extraordinary artistic installation that allows visitors to enter a space of wonder and astonishment. This project is a work in progress and the final result can be seen in September at Tabakalera as well as online at the Ars Electronica Festival.

Building on their series about official and unofficial man-made objects in space, Quadrature’s video installation focuses on exploring new ways of encountering space. Speculation meets imagination and opens new perspectives. For the artist, the input from their collaborators from the field of astronomy will be crucial for finding new visual narratives. Exploring San Sebastián and also including a local community as well as issues that matter to the citizens of the city is another pillar of their work.
