Renewable energy sources minus the science part in cool still-life project

Date
12 March 2013

Science doesn’t really come naturally to me. I can engage with the broad ideas but as soon as anyone adds any nuance, my brain fogs over and I drift off, considering something important like whether it’s possible to drown in goats’ cheese. That’s probably why this project from Kyle Bean, Gemma Fletcher and Mitch Payne appeals to me so much. I could reel off a list of renewable energy sources but in terms of explaining how they would actually power things in our homes, I’d be at a loss. But this trio have helpfully removed what some shampoo companies would call “the science bit” and stripped these complex processes back to the fundamentals in a series of wry, great-looking still-lifes. Take that science!
