“Science can be described as the art of systematic oversimplification—the skill of knowing what we can advantageously leave out.” (Karl Popper)

The Open Lab Natural Rainbow, DIY! bridges art and science, offering simple, hands-on experiments to explore rainbows, the light spectrum, and color mixing. Explore these fascinating phenomena by asking questions and discovering simple answers through hands-on experiments—complete with amazing visual effects.

You can also test your knowledge with a quiz, learn something new, and take photos of your experiments.

    Born in 2005, the artist from Vorarlberg lives and studies in Linz. In her work, she examines the present through the lens of the past while seeking new perspectives for portraying the past. Her preferred media include ink, acrylic, watercolor, and screen printing, though as a young artist she also enjoys experimenting with diverse forms of expression. She has shown her work in exhibitions and film festivals in Linz, Vienna, Salzburg, and Dornbirn, as well as in online formats.
