Audiences will be immersed in a sonic and visual experience representing the formation of a black hole, offering profound insight into quantum physics and the cosmos. Produced in collaboration with LIGO and composer William Basinski, this installation piece presents a quantum interpretation of gravity – mimicking a black hole formation through a new model developed specifically for the work.

Orbihedron is presented as part of Fulcrum Festival 2024: Waves Upon Waves and will be on view October 16, 2024 – January 19, 2025.

Evelina Domnitch (1972) and Dmitry Gelfand (1974) create multi-sensory installations and performances that merge physics, chemistry, and computer science with uncanny philosophical practices. Investigating questions of perception and perpetuity, their artworks exist as ever-transforming phenomena offered for observation. Because these exotic physical phenomena take place directly in front of the observer without being intermediated, they serve to vastly extend the sensory threshold. The immediacy of this experience allows the observer to transcend the illusory distinction between scientific discovery and perceptual expansion.
