Description
Andrea Chapela's experimental essays explore the properties and poetics of glass, mirrors, and light to understand the self. By combining her scientific knowledge with literary analysis, she breaks down cultural divides between arts and science. In this collection, Chapela examines the technical definition of glass and its implications for understanding human life. She also delves into the physics and chemistry of reflection, finding metaphors for our cultural obsessions with self-image. Through her inquiry, she comes to a profound conclusion about the purpose of description in both scientific and literary contexts. Lyrical and introspective, The Visible Unseen constructs a new perspective on how we create meaning and perceive reality.
