A Light Year of Lead at Bethel University

August 8, 2019

On view: September 3 - October 20, 2019 - Bethel University Johnson Gallery, CC Building, 2nd Level

Artist Performance: Friday, September 27th at 7PM in The Underground, Brushaber Commons, 2nd level. Reception with the artist in the Johnson Gallery following the performance.

For the past five years, Carroll has traveled to underground laboratories and astronomical observatories in order to find out exactly what we don’t know. In “A Light Year of Lead”, Carroll presents his findings through large scale color photographs, video, and installation. Pivoting away from scientific facts and clarity, Carroll focuses his lens on mystery, magic, and absurdity while simultaneously working as a documentary photographer. The resulting work oscillates between scientific objectivity and human subjectivity, the massive and the massless, extraordinarily sophisticated experiments and dumb luck, leaving the viewer in a state of wonder, confusion, and curiosity.

If you haven't seen the spectacular show at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts yet, you've got a few more months to check it out. The first room features a massive installation of Blue Line of Woods reproductions hung in collaboration with Karl Blossfeldt's work. It's a great combination and I couldn't be more proud.
