A Scientific Curiosity

admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 08:13:33 +0000

Science inspired photography by Caleb Charland who combines his passion for photography and his interest in physics. “Wonder is a state of mind somewhere between knowledge and uncertainty. It is the basis of my practice and results in images that are simultaneously familiar and strange. I utilize everyday objects and fundamental forces to illustrate experiences of wonder. Each photograph begins with a simple question “How would this look? Is that possible? What would happen if…?” and develops through a sculptural process of experimentation. As I explore the garage and search through the basement to solve these pictures, I find ways to exploit the mysterious qualities of these everyday objects and familiar materials.” explain Caleb.
