‘Dawn Breaks’ – Solar panel artwork by Chloe Uden and The Art and Energy Collective
“Dawn Breaks is the first Solar Panel Artwork made in the UK, using all the standard materials used in the creation of a ‘normal’ solar panel, Chloe has developed new techniques for working in this medium in order to craft a piece that suggests we can dismantle our expectations and find a new way of seeing existing technology and its role in our culture and landscapes.
The Art and Energy Collective is a group of artists, makers, technologists, academics and others who collaborate, share learning and forward the aesthetics of energy generation technology.
We develop artistic responses to the climate emergency to help people engage creatively with the huge changes we experience with our energy system. Our projects help participants and audiences feel excited and connected with energy, help them learn new skills, spend time thinking about energy and sharing great ideas for their communities.”
