The artwork “WAVE-FIELD” is inspired by balance, seriality and the way weight, regardless of size, affects movement.
This relates to the Nobel Prize in Physics 2015 that was awarded to Takaaki Kajita and Arthur B. McDonald for “the discovery of neutrino oscillations, which shows that neutrinos have mass”.
For a long time, neutrinos were believed not to have mass. However, when it was discovered that they oscillate, which means that they move in a repetitive way, it was concluded that they do indeed have mass. The artwork exemplifies how mass can create a repetitive movement. “WAVE‐FIELD” is a work which is grasped both at the intuitive and analytic levels. It is a work that is accessible to all ages, engaging the public on multiple fronts simultaneously.
