v by Sean Kenny

My art begins with the question, “Where does art exist?” Does it exist in my mind at the moment of inception? Or does it result in the manifestation of my ideas through installation, a demonstration of my love of and ability to manipulate light?

Society tends to interpret all existence by minimizing everything to black and white, 1’s and 0’s. Yet, in one beam of light, negative space coexists with an abundance of beauty and infinity. Light is pervasive.

My work appeals to individuals seeking connection with intellectually stimulating as well as spiritually soothing art. While quantum physics, topology and Christianity are strong influences, I do not consider my work defined by any one interest. My art is a bridge between all three communities.

Orbs captured with camera in Australia Night Sky, many would like to think these are 'dust', 'pollen' or just plain old camera artifacts, well if you want to deceive yourself and believe that, OK, but don't bother hanging around here where research is ongoing and shows otherwise, thanks.

These objects are captured with natural colours presented, some contrast is enhanced for better visual viewing, but all are genuine shots and archived originals are kept on data base. They are all shot over my home in NSW Australia by me personally.
