TAILIEUCHUNG - Quantum Sculpture: Art Inspired by the Deeper Nature of Reality

Helen of Troy I and II, 1983, were both made out of the broken parts of Balzae. In the Greek myth, Helen was captured by the Trojans. She was said to be the most beautiful woman who ever lived, and a flotilla of 1,000 ships was launched to save her. Helen of Troy I will presumably be the first sculpture that launches a thousand ships. Helen of Troy II, while still the same shape, is painted partly white and raised on a pyramid type base. It is almost as if in this second version we are allowed to peek under her skirt. Troy finally fell after a horse. | Quantum Sculpture Art Inspired by the Deeper Nature of Reality Julian Voss-Andreae 1517 SE Holly Street Portland OR 97214 USA E-mail info@ W ebsite Abstract The author a sculptor with a background in physics describes sculptures he creates inspired by quantum physics. He argues that contemporary art freed from the presupposition that it needs to visually accurately represent reality has a unique potential to indicate aspects of reality that science cannot. Art can thus help facilitate a deeper understanding of the nature of reality and contribute to weaning us from the powerful grip that classical physics has had over the last centuries on our every perception of reality. Introduction After graduating from physics in 2000 I moved to the . and studied sculpture. Throughout my art studies I retained a strong interest in the field that had most fascinated me during my science studies quantum physics and its philosophical implications. I will begin this article by describing the challenges one encounters when attempting to create a consistent mental image of a world ruled by quantum physics. I will then give a brief outline of a seminal experiment 1 at the boundary between physics and philosophy I was fortunate to be involved in as a graduate student. This research has influenced me deeply and has directly inspired the sculptures described. Finally I will provide a detailed discussion of selected works from my 2009 2010 exhibition titled Quantum Objects 2 . On Visualizing Quantum Physics It has been recognized that quantum theory does not admit of a realistic 3 interpretation. For example there is no accurate space-time representation of say an electron It is neither a particle nor a wave nor any other thing . So there is a danger in presenting artificially concrete representations without making sure they are correctly understood as only a facet of something more complex or as something altogether different.
