Daniela Brill Estrada
Daniela's work plays with the notion of elements being created in the Big Bang or through collisions of neutron stars and somehow becoming part of our own skin. Using natural materials, chemical elements and verses on the walls she proposes new poetic thinking about science, the scientific world and its theories.

Ricky Chaggar
Ricky Chaggar is an international award winning composer. With music ranging from traditional orchestral instruments to electronic and sound design, or a combination. His music is played at festivals and concerts around the world.
Stellar Evolution is composed for orchestra, on the subject of a star’s life. It relates to physics as the melodies and harmonies were composed by using data sheets about the Sun’s life cycle, from Selin Üstündağ and her team of astrophysicists. View the 3 orchestral pieces below.

Katherine Gravett
Katherine uses ink, chemicals and fractals to learn about and recreate natural formations resulting in highly detailed abstract drawings. The relationship between order and chaos inspires her work. She has a background in neurological development and has worked in artist/scientist collaborations.
Dr Jonelle Harvey
I am an artist and scientist based in the Cambridgeshire area, focused on interpreting science research through art. I am interested in forming new collaborations.
Philip Kilner
Philip has always been interested in both visual arts and science. The polyhedral and plane lattice transformations you see on display explore fundamental relations between space, number and form.
Reggy (Tong) Liu
Reggy Liu is a fine artist and creative director with a practice incorporating drawing, painting, screen printing, photography, film, digital art, sculpture and installation. Liu works in harmony between art, fashion and science – social psychology, physics, facial cognition, special and colour cognition.

Rebecca Nesbit
Rebecca Nesbit developed her passion for both polymer clay and science as a young child. As an adult, she realised the potential of polymer clay to make original, intricate artwork and so combined her two interests to create science jewellery.
Priya Odedra
My practice explores Man-Nature-Technology relations in order to challenge the anthropocentric view of the world. Technology in her work is implicated as an intrinsic aspect of human identity in a hyper-connected, digital world.
Lisa Pettibone
My aim is to record tension, gravity and energy flow through strong line and distinct form. Conceptually I draw on man’s complex relationship with nature and merge these ideas with the qualities and limits of the material.
Melissa Pierce Murray
Informed by poetry, physics and dance, Melissa uses a range of fabricated or found materials to create human scaled sculptures which explore the boundaries between interior and exterior worlds.
Byron Rich
Byron Rich is an artist, professor and lecturer born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. His work exploring speculative design, biology futures and tactical media ecology has been widely shown and spoken about internationally.
He produces philosophical, technological, and socially resonant artworks
that encourage discourse and promotes scientific literacy.
Jeremy Robinson
Most of the art I have to create is normally to very strict commercial guide lines for a specific brief. In my spare time I draw Space, aero space and chemical related art as well more commercial pieces for events.
Helen Schell
Helens specialises in art projects inspired by space exploration & science of the cosmos and I’m an ESERO-UK Space Ambassador (ESA education).
Nicolas Strappini
My practice involves the practical, theoretical and historical investigation of the traditions of making abstract but coherently shaped or patterned images using physical science equipment.
Marcus Volz
Marcus is a research fellow at the University of Melbourne and a mathematical artist. His interests and skills revolve around mathematical visualisation and he is always looking for opportunities to represent complex information in novel visual ways to help accelerate the learning process, and to uncover unexpected or unintuitive results.
Jenny Walsh
Jenny is a glass artist who not only recognises the decorative qualities of glass, but also the significant role glass has played in scientific discoveries, from the humble test tube to the microscope.

Victoria Westerman
I am a practitioner who seeks novel systems of investigation into the subconscious and the universal visual language therein. I then investigate systems of applying this data to enhance the communication of the sciences.
Olga Yakimenko
I’m interested in polychromatic visuals (currently working on developing an aesthetic using analog video equipment), creating surreal environments for surreal ideas, and connecting to others via shared cultural and emotional experiences, with a particularly fierce love for educational and scientific content.
