In a new commission, Laure Prouvost explores quantum phenomena and their sensitivity to cosmic and planetary forces. WE FELT A STAR DYING follows two years of research and rare access to a quantum computer.
The project grows from the artist’s conversations with philosopher Tobias Rees and scientist Hartmut Neven, which led to Prouvost’s experiments with a new AI model which makes use of data recorded from quantum computations. The results can be experienced in a multisensory installation, including video, sound and scent. Presented in the industrial space of Kraftwerk Berlin, a former power plant, the commission opens a dynamic reflection on technological development today.
Laure Prouvost’s new commission launches LAS Art Foundation’s Sensing Quantum programme, which includes further installations, a public symposium and publication, and runs through to 2026.
