Abstract
Solo Exhibition at Albion House Ramsgate
14 June - 31 July 2025.
‘Constellations’ comprises several projects by Ramsgate artist, Dr Melanie King. The artworks are presented in each ground floor room of Albion House, forming ‘constellations’ within the overall ‘universe’ of Kings’ artistic practice.
Presented in the exhibition:
* In Praise Of Raw Data *
The In Praise of Raw Data project is a result of an ongoing collaboration between artist Dr Melanie King and Dr Claudia Mignone - an astronomer and science communicator at INAF - Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica, Rome. This project highlights the beauty of raw data artefacts resulting from cosmic interactions with telescope sensors.
* Ancient Light *
Ancient Light arose from King’s recently completed practice-based PhD at the Royal College of Art. The project comprises a series of analogue photographs of the night sky, produced in several dark sky locations.
* Lunar Portraits *
Kings related project Lunar Portraits consists of a series of photographs using only light from the Full Moon to expose the image. Participants were asked to gaze up at the full moon whilst moonlight fell upon their face.
