The Ocean Decade Community of Practice has been exploring the practice of science-art with the intention of inspiring future creations by the network to be showcased at the Annual Meeting in November, and beyond. Developed by interdisciplinary scientist Samantha Jones, these activities aim to engage diverse participation across the network and centre the science-art practices of diverse folks. No previous experience with art is necessary.
This Inspiration Session builds on content included in the workbook, and will lead up to the Annual Meeting Science-Art Showcase. This synchronous panel discussion is complementary to the workbook, and aims to engage the science-art practices of folks inside and outside of the MEOPAR network. This experience will focus on possible entry points into science-art work, how creatives generate ideas, and developing a creative practice that is engaging for the artist and the people who interact with the finished work.
