Artist Collin Van Uchelen in conversation
Join artist Collin Van Uchelen in conversation with the curators of Henry Moore Institute’s exhibition Beyond the Visual to learn more about his practice and his tactile ‘firework’ sculptures, some of which are in the exhibition.
Collin van Uchelen, PhD, is a community psychologist, conceptual artist, and pyrotechnician based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. His artistic practice explores techniques for translating the light of pyrotechnic art into non-visual forms using tactile representations and audio description. Currently, he is designing a multi-sensory pyro-musical display which uses fireworks to depict his own experience of sight loss from a progressive blinding eye disease.
