LIGO – The Art of Science

I have been selected as one of the artist fellows for The Art of Science, a program run by The Ligo Project, an organization that leverages “art-science programs to foster a mindset toward cross-disciplinary thinking and away from siloed thought processes, to improve scientific literacy, and to help develop new methods of collaboration.”

I have been paired with the scientist John Burns at the Museum of Natural History. During our collaboration I will visit John’s lab at the Museum and he will visit my studio. John works with a team at the museum to explore the unusual embryonic symbiotic relationship between spotted salamanders and green algae.
