2021 Exercise Photo 0121

Since 2020 I have been working on the series “Notes on Matter and Antimatter”. These are ceramic tiles that can be seen as the pages of a workbook.
This work is part of the series. It's an exercise to learn how to analyse bubble chamber photos. From the 1950s to the 1970s, CERN (European Organization for nuclear Research in Meyrin, on the border of France and Switzerland) has been using the bubble chamber to investigate the behavior of subatomic particles. These particles are smaller than the nucleus of an atom. The traces left by the moving particles are made visible in the bubble chamber and are photographed.
By means of ceramic transfers, the photos and my texts are transferred to the ceramic tile.
