Neither Wave Nor Particle / 2022
Reminiscent of jewelry hanging on
the wall, Neither-wave-nor-particle
comprises two black spiky blubs
connected by a strand of variously
sized volcanic rock beads. Tap Chan
calls the two curious starlike shapes
"stellar objects," a phrase that came
into her mind after she browsed
through a 15th-century book and
discovered a picture titled "The
Stars Fall"—an illustration depicting
the apocalypse with spiky stars
falling from the sky. A tribute to the
beauty Chan finds in wave–particle
duality, the work encapsulates the
fascination with imperceptible
matters in science.
