Janette Kerr: Extreme Wave Theory Project

A research and development project concerning the interface between art and science relating to sea surrounding Shetland. It seeks to make direct visual associations between observational and experiential field work, the work of Norwegian mathematicians and scientists researching Extreme Wave Theory, and the material culture of exploration and measurement, intertwined with the cultural narratives of danger and the sublime – historic storms, tragedies etc. that are part of Shetland’s history.

My return to Shetland

After a unavoidable break from my project I will be returning to Shetland for the month of October where I will be holding an open studio day, presenting my research to students at Lerwick college, and continuing with my research and development of work. Hoping for lots of waves and wild weather... I will post updates on my blog. See you there.
