Prism: The art and science of light

Diana Copperwhite



Curated by Chris Clarke and Fiona Kearney in association with IPIC, the Irish Photonic Integration Centre at the Tyndall Institute, UCC.
From the powerful LED statements of Jenny Holzer to the nuanced exploration of the spectrum in paintings by Mark Joyce, PRISM presents artworks where light is both material and subject.
PRISM will provide audiences with a fascinating insight into the ways in which light is both visible and invisible in our everyday lives, and how it informs our understanding of ourselves and our communications with others. 
Featuring work by:
Polly Apfelbaum, David Batchelor, Alan Butler, James Clar, Diana Copperwhite, Jenny Holzer, Mark Joyce, Brigitte Kowanz, Dennis McNulty, Emer O’Boyle and Grace Weir

Cloud forms appear across several works, oscillating between pattern and landscape. As above, so below- creosote in its various forms appear as a familiar and familial plant speaking to the artists’ connection to the desert landscape, her family has lived in the borderlands since t...
