Bloom (2012)

This artist book is part of the project Synergy: An Experiment in Communicating Science through Art and was on exhibit in the spring of 2013 at the Museum of Science, Boston. The exhibition, Ocean Stories: A Synergy of Art and Science, featured eight artists who were paired with scientists from MIT and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI).

From Bloom to Book

Synergy is an experimental program that catalyzes partnerships between artists and research scientists.

With an emphasis on communication and collaboration, Synergy aims to provide meaningful creative and intellectual experiences for both the general public and for participating artists and scientists. We carefully select and match artists and scientists to work together and formulate a shared voice. We then present the outcome of these collaborations through group exhibitions that invite the public to engage with this unique art/science dialogue.
