What is light and what is darkness? Is darkness a refuge or a breeding ground for fear and nightmares? How can we recognise the presence of something invisible? How do we preserve memories and how will we be remembered? The annual exhibition of the Art&Science Master's programme presents a spectrum of twenty-one artistic works, ranging from socio-political to very personal themes. With different reflections on the enigmatic ‘source of life’, the artists shed light on various facets of human experience and perception and invite the audience to reflect on the complexity of light and its profound meaning.
