Hi everyone.
I am currently developing an exhibition called Science Studio where
we are focusing on beauty of both art and science rather than using
science to describe how an art piece is made. This approach gives us
a language to describe and interact with many kinds of beauty in the
world around us be it man made or natural. We are trying to give
visitors a context in which to explore in spite of its origin. All
of our interactives are clustered around simple themes and we are
giving visitors several opportunities to explore the simple theme
through both art and natural phenomena. A conversation about beauty
also takes place throughout the exhibit by showcasing quotes from
famous artists and scientists.
