The Majestic Power Of Ocean Waves By Luke Shadbolt

During the late-1950s Jack Shadbolt’s work shifted towards an animated and nature-based abstraction, as seen with After Fire (Salmon Barbecue). Inspired by the tile work B.C. Binning created for the B.C. Electric Building located at 970 Burrard Street in Vancouver, Shadbolt employs a mosaic cubist-like grid while placing emphasis on both the colour and materiality of the paint. Through this grid Shadbolt abstracts a salmon carcass over a smoldering barbecue – imagery that not only speaks to the Pacific Northwest First Nations groups but also changes within and repercussions of the local fishing industry. As with many of Shadbolt’s other works After Fire (Salmon Barbecue) explores the intersections between nature and culture while drawing on the artist’s own experiences of the British Columbia landscape.

When Pete Shadbolt places two chips on a multi-touch table, and an oscillating line of light appears to connect them, a haunting howl is also emitted. Add another chip and another, and more connections and howls emerge. The whole thing pulsates almost like it's alive all the while emitting sound that change frequency as he moves the chips around and twists knobs on the table. We are playing with structures known as quantum graphs.
