Kevin Callaghan's work investigates ideas and conjectures about Utopian philosophy, science fiction and fantasy. Kevin uses simple universal mathematical structures such as the triangle and square as a point of departure. These are treated in contrasting colours in order to maximize optical dynamism and vibrancy. The geometric structures intertwine, appearing precarious and spontaneous, this dynamic state attempts to question notions of order and chaos. 

Callaghan is searching for a means to portray the notion of 'travel' weather inter-dimensional or as a reality outside and unknown to us all. These visions of new perspectives of high-density realities or non-realities aim to penetrate a kind of outer space comprising a dream like world where reality meets conscious dreaming, allowing questions of curiosity and wonder about the cognitive state to be explored.
