  • Artwork Description

    Belongs to the collection about science, the artwork “Hamiltoniens” is based on the concept of Hamilton mechanical physics, which is fundamental in quantum mechanics, explaining the motion of objects at the microscopic level scale but in more complex motion systems, such as planetary orbits.
