“CERTAIN ART CAN NOT BE DESCRIBED, IT MUST BE SEEN AND EXPERIENCED”

About Beyond the Light

ARTECHOUSE Studio’s award-winning collaboration with NASA, this science-based exhibition integrates the latest experiential storytelling tools with the frontier-pushing data NASA collects about our Universe. Using the latest images from the James Webb Space and Hubble Space Telescopes, "Beyond the Light” is a thrilling interstellar journey into the deepest reaches of the cosmos. At the heart of the exhibit is a 26 mins cinematic piece employing a 100-million-pixel projection, and the latest audio-visual technology to present a mind-bending exploration into the limitless expanses of the galaxy in over 18K resolution. The title piece is accompanied by seven multi-media installations that utilize AI to examine NASA’s data on the moon, heliophysics, Mars rover, climate science, and more.

About Intangible Forms

Japanese multimedia artist Shohei Fujimoto employs choreographed lasers, strobes and moving lights to explore the universal connections between living beings and their realities. Set in a soundscape inspired by the meditative quiet of Japanese Shinto shrines, each piece from the exhibit challenges viewers to contemplate the dualities of reality and illusory within the framework of what it means to be human amid chaos and order. Fujimoto’s first solo show in North America when it debuted in 2020 at ARTECHOUSE NYC, “Intangible Forms” evolves with each mounting, making the Houston show an adaptive new iteration of the artist’s breathtaking meditation on humanity.

Recommended ages 6+. Children under the age of 6 years old can still attend at the discretion of their supervising adults. Visitors ages 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult 18 years of age or older at all times.* Adults with children are responsible for their children's supervision, conduct, and safety.

About Eternal Life

Delving into themes of eternity and life, the piece draws inspiration from T.S. Eliot’s Four Quartets and the cyclical nature of time. Initially commissioned by the Nobel Prize Museum in 2022, this updated 2024 version incorporates interpretations of Nobel Prize-winning works such as the celestial orbits and the revolutionary CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology. Influenced by Harry Martinson’s Nobel-winning Aniara, the digital content is presented on a lens-like physical canvas that serves as a portal to a parallel universe and explores the landscape of the mind.
