Nick Veasey is an artist whose intrigue surrounding the superficial and what lies beneath led him to use x-ray to mesh art with science. After our discussion after visiting the lab last weekend, I really have begun pondering if the images science produces can be considered art.
I think what I've come to understand is that most of what artists create mimics in some way what naturally occurs anyway, so the idea that images and sounds found in nature and science thus manipulated through the perspective of an artist can certainly be embraced as art. As my mind began to reel considering if there is any art constructed that in some way doesn't reflect an image, action, or structure not in nature, I became very interested in what that art looks like--I mean, even chaos is natural.
So, to you all, I open up the idea of responding to this blog with images/examples of art that are not grounded in some way on concepts naturally occurring.
that's a great and pretty funny picture! how did the photographer get the permission to xray the whole classroom!?
