"Fission" Sculpture by Dan Preece
A wood and resin piece inspired by the stories of Oppenheimer and the Manhattan Project.
This is made up of 6 upright 16 inch clear, square, resin panels. They are standing one in front of the other so you can see through them, from front to back. Each layer has a series of square wooden blocks on them and each one placed in a specific pattern. Making this an amazing art piece on constant display by design.
Dimensions measure 16 “ x 16” and weighs 15 lbs.
I just finished a long history book talking about the whole period of time when the discoveries of the atom and its characteristics were being discovered and understood and how it culminated in the making of the atom bomb etc. I minored in chemistry and took physics in college before med school and these subjects are incredible fascinating, terrible and amazing all at once. The power of one atom. ~ Artist, Dan Preece
