Dallas acknowledges that the collaboration between art and science has been an important part of his artistic practice for some time. His eclectic interest in mechanical and electrical objects stems from his former career as an aerospace engineer, and his work amalgamates various concepts, materials, and processes that reveal an interest in transformative materiality and form. His recent work references the notions of time, the nature of science fiction versus science fact, and the approach both parties have in common. Dallas states ‘There is always something beautiful about the uncontrolled exploration of making art and the methodical and intentional exploration that science can reveal’.
