“Exploring the ArtSci Connect”
Mobilizing research and practice that enhances art through the incorporation of science and science through art!
Explore creative inter-disciplinary connections between the arts and science by focusing on the visual arts as they are used and expressed in the STEM fields, creating “STEAM” (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics).
Explore how the Mi’kmaw principle of Two-Eyed Seeing can be implemented, integrated and communicated through contemporary artistic practice. We will use this guiding principle to address how Indigenous art intersects with science by connecting contributors of aboriginal identity and heritage with artists, researchers, educators and the public to address new ways of learning through cross-cultural exchange.
