Star Matter by Marion Borgelt
Exhibition dates 9 April - 4 May 2024
“The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff.” - Carl Sagan, Cosmos
“Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were, but without it we go nowhere.” - Carl Sagan
In Star Matter we witness the artist’s impressions of the surface of an imaginary sphere, the textures of an imaginary star, the colours of imaginary skies, the depths of imaginary space.
