A formally trained scientist who spent years tracking viruses for the U.S. government, he now lives and works in San Diego as a painter. September 29th marked the opening reception of his exhibition at Quint Gallery in San Diego, California. Kelsey Brookes has been making sculptures for most of 2018. "It's been an eye-opening experience and a mostly enjoyable process. The show's title (noted as a mouthful by the Kelsey) Fibonacci, Waveforms, and Capsid Symmetries" features vibrant, colorful sculptures made/painted using mathematics and science. Inspired by the Italian mathematician, Fibonacci , considered to be "the most talented Western mathematician of the Middle Ages". Fibonacci is most notable for creating the Fibonacci Sequence. More about this exhibition from the artist himself, "Viruses can be organized using many different features, for my upcoming show at Quint Gallery. I am focusing in on a broad morphological classification system using capsid symmetry as a starting point to create these paintings/sculptures. My past career as a microbiologist really coming in handy a decade later. You really never know here life will take you, do you?" | | | FIBONACCI, WAREFORMS & CAPSID SYMMETRIES ANP artist Kelsey Brookes explains the Fibonacci concept, the grounds for his newest works featured in "Fibonacci, Waveforms & Caspin Symmetries" showing at the Quint Gallery in La Jolla, CA 9/19/18 - 10/10/18. | | | You are receiving this email because you subscribed to our newsletters at RVCA.com or are a recent customer.
