Back to Light, Photos of Batteries Made out of Food



Back to Light, Photos of Batteries Made out of Food

Artist Caleb Charland blends art and science in “Back to Light,” his wonderful photo series of batteries made out of fruit, vinegars, and other everyday materials.
Some of the photos feature small batteries made out of a single fruit, but Charland has also rigged giant batteries—in one case out of 300 potatoes in a farm field. Charland’s work is currently on display at the Schneider Gallery in Chicago through June 29, 2013. He also has an upcoming show at Gallery Kayafas in Boston, May 17 to June 22, 2013.
