Antony Gormley’s art often examines what it means to exist as a physical body in the world. Inspired by his creative practice, our panel deliberates whether art can contribute to our understanding of the world, and seeks to understand the relationship between mind, body and space within science.
Theoretical astrophysicist, Priya Natarajan, joins Semiconductor, the artist duo Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt, to discuss how they can give explanation to the unknown. John O’Shea, Head of Programming for Science Gallery London, chairs this discussion exploring how artists have collaborated with astronomers to question, understand and represent cosmology and physics.

I saw one of Semiconductor's installations earlier this year. It was very good.

Oh, thank you for that! I've just e-mailed Natarajan about a relevant example from our work, though I can't say what without self identifying.
