SPARK 6: Refractions

The Peale 225 Holliday StBaltimore, MD, United States

Spark 6: Refractions features the work of UMBC and Towson faculty, recent graduates, and current students in the historic galleries of The Peale in Baltimore City, sponsored by PNC. Refraction is the change in direction of a wave as it passes from one transparent substance into another — a phenomenon most commonly observed when light waves pass through lenses, magnifying glasses, and prisms. Each of the artists in this exhibition serves as an apparatus of refraction: focusing, magnifying, or redirecting our attention and experience of our world.

This is the sixth in a series of six lectures, Beyond the Veil: Making Sense of the Spirit World.
