Leah Beeferman’s process is also intellectual and interpretive. Starting with textual and visual research about the universe, laws of physics, and idealized geometry, she uses image-making, animation, and sound to explore these findings. By pairing certain drawings with scientific imagery, Beeferman confuses the idea of an informative discovery with an inventive one.
