This event has ended.

Rawson Projects presents Leah Beeferman: Strong Force, the artist’s first show with the gallery.

Leah Beeferman’s ongoing series of digital drawings, Strong Force (Chromodynamics), comes from an interest in the intangible and nonvisual space of theoretical physics and computer-based image-making. Using photographs and scans of objects from remote locations, Beeferman merges a very “real” space (from her own observation and experience) with the flatness and depth of “virtual” space (digital image-making) to create a physical object that lies somewhere in the space between a photograph, a drawing and a sculpture (the resulting works are face-mounted digital c-prints on metallic paper). And it is this notion of “in-betweenness” that connects the artist’s ideas about the non-uniform in her work to her interest in theoretical and quantum physics: “True “empty space” isn’t something we can access, and neither is dense emptiness” (BOMB — Artists in Conversation: Leah Beeferman by Lucas Blalock).
