Opening Reception: The Next Dimension

Tuesday, November 8, 2011, 5-7pm

A program of The Next Dimension: Holograms from the Institute of Optical Sciences

Creating 3 dimensional holographic images on 2 dimensional surfaces requires a unique blend of technical expertise and aesthetic consideration. The 24 pieces featured in this exhibition have been produced by undergraduate students from the Holography for 3D Visualization course hosted by the Institute for Optical Sciences (IOS) and comprises the largest holography collection in Toronto. As the final product of a highly collaborative process between science, engineering and art students, these pieces embody the combined experiences of individuals with widely varying interests and abilities to create visually stunning and technically sophisticated works of art.
