ARTECHOUSE, a pioneer in innovative, experiential art and the leading contemporary art space dedicated exclusively to
technology-based art, is pleased to announce Beyond the Light. Developed in collaboration with NASA, this visionary and awe-inspiring exhibition is a unique artistic expression of NASA’s scientific discoveries, including newly analyzed galactical data captured by the James Webb Space Telescope, that offers audiences the opportunity to explore the universe through the innovative use of technology-driven art.
Beyond the Light is a new vision for experiencing the cosmos through the timeless story of light. ARTECHOUSE Studio delved into the vast database researched and produced by NASA to bring what is often invisible to our naked eyes about our universe into the highest resolution possible. Spotlighting James Webb Space Telescope’s perspective-bending discoveries of our early galaxies, the exhibition explores light as the throughline that connects history, science, engineering, technology, and the astonishing discoveries driving the evolution of human exploration.
The exhibition merges scientific and artistic storytelling, anchoring on a 25-minute cinematic journey through a captivating audio-visual interpretation of how we have experienced light over time, presented in today’s highest-resolution projection technology to deliver a feast for the senses. With the exquisite universe as its backdrop, Beyond the Light highlights the importance of light in our pursuit of knowledge and the evolution of technology that allows us to discover beyond
our known experiences. Through art, visitors will be able to uncover an interwoven connection of disciplines used to explore our galaxy and beyond. Educational and interactive, the exhibition ignites imagination beyond what is visible and is suitable
for all ages.
The title piece is accompanied by six supporting installations that explore our immediate solar system through carefully curated stories and an artistic lens. Covering the moon, heliophysics, Mars rover, climate science, biosphere, and NASA Spinoffs, these present NASA’s science in reimagined forms. They offer visitors an opportunity to discover the impact that a Carrington Event would have on our society, make music with an instrument made from elements of the periodic table, explore Mars rovers’ dreams created through AI, and learn about NASA Spinoffs, which highlight NASA’s aerospace engineering developments that are also solving problems for the everyday citizen (pacemakers, CAT scans, CO2 detectors and
more).
