In Science and Memory art is a bridge for communication.

 

Addressing complex problems such as climate change requires more than logic. Using our hands to manipulate, touch, explore and engage our mind and body is an organic process that fosters creativity. In Science and Memory, hard facts and data driven research about climate change are baseline to what we do. Art serves as a way to explore and understand complex topics, a way to bridge what we know with what we feel. Working in watercolor, an organic medium in itself, helps to convey the complex nature of climate change research to the public in a beautiful and captivating way.
