Nicky Zwaan: Trying to Catch Up With My Molecules

Cityscapes is a new gallery focussing on the interfaces of art, architecture and the city. Cityscapes considers architecture as art and the city as work of art.

Cityscapes is proud to present at the first GM8 Exhibition recent installations by Nicky Zwaan in which she investigates how we perceive the world around us through the working of light.

‘An object in space is only visible when light bounces off it and enters our eyes as a light wave. The object materialises inside our brain. We think we see it in front of us, when in reality it is hiding in our head’.
