Art of Energy Exhibition 2021
The Energy Ethics team and University of St Andrews welcome you to the Art of Energy virtual exhibition. The vibrant and diverse artworks you are about to experience gravitate around, challenge and question the central theme of ‘how can we make sense of the entanglement of life with energy?’
The gallery is best explored on a laptop or desktop computer. Use your arrow keys to move around the 3D gallery space and your cursor to look around.

On the first floor, you will find exhibits by three world-renowned photographers, each bringing their own distinctive perspective to the theme of energy in contemporary life. On the second floor, you will find creative works from a range of artists participating in the inaugural Art of Energy Award. A soundscape created by musicians pecq will accompany your journey throughout the gallery space.
We invite you to explore this virtual gallery at your own pace. Enjoy!
