They are an essential tool for describing particle physics events and are used by all levels of scientist, from high school students to world leading researchers. I like the look of these diagrams, and I am impressed that such simple graphical representations can be so powerful in communicating complex concepts. In my art work I use the functional qualities of the diagrams as a starting point and try to enhance the visual qualities that I see by re-representing these graphical symbols in other forms. This has led to my producing a series of both graphical and sculptural works. The Feynman diagram for beta decay was the starting point for Sculpture III. https://sciart.org.uk/emily-fisher daily 0.75 2018-02-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519265363156-FBD1ZJYQWP1K8ASAH2NY/Emily_Fisher_Misplaced_in_Space_2.jpg Emily Fisher https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519265363156-FBD1ZJYQWP1K8ASAH2NY/Emily_Fisher_Misplaced_in_Space_2.jpg Emily Fisher https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519265364673-WI897FYBLOWGV2PHVUHD/Emily_Fisher_Misplaced_in_Space_Flyer.jpg Emily Fisher https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519265365141-0LNHV9GQSPHN06YNNNAX/Emily_Fisher_Misplaced_in_Space.jpg Emily Fisher https://sciart.org.uk/lisa-pettibone daily 0.75 2018-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519266533479-FQ6U3YWG4FPHECAZTRHZ/Capture.jpg Lisa Pettibone - Capture At CERN high energy particles move in straight lines when colliding in the CMS detector as they resist the magnetic field that would otherwise bend their trajectory.

This print expresses the sense of community and hidden energy about the place, flowing between the people and the experiments. In 2016-17, invited by Art@CMS, I visited CERN with a group of MA Art and Science students from Central Saint Martins London and this work is a response to the experience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521985572076-SLSTPZF41FV3CUV7ZLV0/unnamed.jpg Lisa Pettibone - Collapsed Extreme events in the universe, such as blackholes, are nearly impossible to imagine. However, glass can be pushed through extreme forming techniques in the heat of the kiln while we think about these things.

Taking inspiration from the ever changing nature of materials exposed to physical and environmental processes, Gustav Metzger’s auto-destructive art manifesto and trauma studies my work aims to create a visual and poetic parallelism between the physical and psychological nature of traumatic events. Breaking Point consists of a series of concrete cubes that crack and break into pieces in front of the audience by the use of expansive mortar. The collapse of each sculpture will follow its own rhythm, created by the manipulation of the material and the consistency of the block. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520796629396-ORLFSJCRNMLNPP4IURO0/Breaking+Point_2.jpg People - Breaking Point https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520796638053-7SSFONQJ4AQ6XW2IC4V2/Breaking+Point_3.jpg People - Breaking Point https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519252306487-MY7HG2BY5QX7CVZ7GY0G/F4C106DC-3F47-48E7-88EE-976C9EACB3F1.jpeg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1561386121221-73YQ7RVIPASE7LJ5H9MJ/unnamed.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1513679484507-Q61CUCDW4PTQXQWKXSNO/mattmcdonnell.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511985302489-GBO1S07POTQZQJSTRWAU/IsabelLambourne.JPG People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511988137218-6BWI3PXOO7XU3K9YTO18/isabel1.JPG People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511988137596-ANYB35RRAA7PJTOVFRZA/isabel2.JPG People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1510784967899-BDSY8YDXT75DSQJ56QL5/jacobbrewardbutler.jpeg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1510783944749-7Y6LCO3XOG1GOJYD3M2O/JennyWalsh-Portrait.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511203251922-EDOF56YWY7U7DKINKSDD/bendobson-acid.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511203252115-5BENXAIPLVXATU1F1WLW/bendobsonAnt-Overlord.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511203589424-46TP9O65BJFAZAP1KEE6/Arachnoidiscus-sendaicus.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511203253334-9YV84SFZVRDPP5N2NKDB/bendobsonJaws-1024x899.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1511203445704-TKO3OZSP3KQARXTP3L50/bendobsonportrait.png People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1533023974121-E3NBAZSYYJEI0H67X1JW/DesK People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1561386933229-MO1MYILNXBRJK6BPRWMT/george_mavrikos_portrait.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1533023618257-8XBAKLJABKAYL4L9VTC8/E.Cusin_photo.jpeg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1533024187874-GE7QP0ZKK26FZ3UKXC8O/sciart+testing+combinations+small+canvassed.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1533024191968-SEN7X9ISKTSLW3GA0RSI/sciart+deskilfeather+apr18+DSC00130.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1533024198313-PG0OKEB6MGHDZ1OWII9D/image+sciart+deskilfeather+apr18.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1507205593895-3ILD6YAJZSGQCED7JI90/JennyWalsh.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1507209400679-3SYY2VCQWYK18JVLLR2K/JennyWalshTesttubes.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1507209405611-PZJO0NEFIBRYY8NTCSR7/JennyWalsh-Glass1.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1507209453735-A81NS85CSHKW4LYM0NTU/JennyWalshGlass2.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1513679878642-MVXRKJ27YAGUKM6AEFWB/MattMcDonnell1.png People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1513679923951-6ILZNUJAEFGL43ABZBWU/MatMcDonnell2.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1513679967521-S7QL70WP7ELOYYC5S5FR/MattMcDonnell3.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1513679876407-CM10IU0MF7S9CGMZU73H/MattMcDonnell4.png People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1573320115030-KCWUB7WS9ODG0W75O072/CK.png People https://sciart.org.uk/frankie-buckle daily 0.75 2023-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521145439531-ZZYVPSAHTQ843TER28H5/Frankie.png Frankie Buckle https://sciart.org.uk/cavendish2018 daily 0.75 2019-11-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519267187595-9PFLEYK2GRL914N3SHHA/Reggy+Liu.png Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521983961312-EX9RIZM6PWRU4RHRNJT4/Priya+Odedra%2C+Prakriti+SciArt.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Prakriti Prakriti is a Vedic concept, which signifies evolution and change in the empirical, material universe, often described as the “primal motive force”.

Various elements of the experiment have been combined to create a new world where the experiment holds the power of discovery. Central to the piece is the experiment itself, the imaging photoelectron photoion coincidence spectrometer. In this large device, the VUV light encounters the molecules with such energy that it blasts them apart. The electrons fly upwards, the positive ions fall downwards and the resultant tsunami of data that is generated overwhelms the chemist, under a sky of a diffracted light pattern. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521967902890-L9Q7IAGCH2QXHLT5FO6P/SLS+illustrations.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - SLS Illustrations This triptych of work was commissioned by the researchers at the Swiss Light Source to be used on displays for young visitors to the Swiss synchrotron. The VUV (vacuum ultra-violet) beamline is the only beamline where the visitors can see its inner workings, as all the others require large concrete and lead casings to protect from the harshest of the synchrotron radiation. Influenced by Quentin Blake, they illustrate the synchrotron light generated by speeding electrons, how it is used to blast the molecules apart and an interpretation of the data generated in the form of a time of flight mass spectrum. This spectrum is generated when larger fragments such as the parent ion (or bird!) fly more slowly towards the detector due to their larger weight, than smaller daughter fragments (chicks). However, sometimes a sloping trace between the parent and daughter peaks forms and this tells us that something on a quantum mechanic level slows down the fragmentation from parent to daughter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521985671431-JO87VAI6T7JO3UQ84EDR/MPM.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519252306487-MY7HG2BY5QX7CVZ7GY0G/F4C106DC-3F47-48E7-88EE-976C9EACB3F1.jpeg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521989081363-IP4DNW15ZSQ9G1XWWOJE/NICOLASSTRAPPINILissajouspendulum.png Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Lissajous A steel horizontal mechanism makes Lissajous figure drawings in sand.

The waves of the different rays interfere with each other creating beautiful colours like oil on water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521966229184-ZZPITOVO9UFGUZ9RYZJJ/Naked+singularityweb.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Naked Singularity I worked with Markus Kunesch and Saran Tunyasuvunakool from the Department of Applied Maths & Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge who are researching five dimensional black holes. I chose to collaborate with theoretical physicists because, although I hated physics at school, my family are physicists and mathematicians. I’ve come to love seeing how it excites people. I love the animated body language, the intensity of the discussions. They’re simulating something so fundamental – how the universe itself hangs together. I asked Markus and Saran to draw their research and I’ve included the heart of this in the piece. If a singularity can occur outside a black hole, the universe is not as we know it. The complex and intricate coding to do this is the fabric of their work, and it surrounds them, even at the coffee break, which is where I think the magic really happens! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519266486319-CRN6XMNTNYURV01YY7AG/Lisa.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521986678338-MUR8N6I5I62BS0JZHFAT/Jeremy_Robinson_Small.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520796512410-FYOA0FJ4978NFDCXPT8V/E.Cusin_photo.jpeg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521998036907-TGAJOA5QKFEIZNH7TIXE/Mark1.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - M-Ark I M-Ark I tackles the prospect of a future in which humanity has rendered our planet inhospitable; a prospect made all the more possible with the United States pulling out of the Paris Climate Treaty. M-Ark I uses the philosophically compelling theory of panspermia, the idea that life is spread throughout the universe on comets, asteroids, planetoids, and even unnaturally by sufficiently sophisticated civilizations, as it’s underpinning. M-Ark will be a small satellite that carries on board a human microbiome, capitalizing on the hypothesis that human evolution was guided in part out of the necessity of microbiota. This small satellite will be designed to theoretically crash back down to earth at such a point that climate conditions have once again become favourable, kick-starting panspermia. It is entirely possible to build a functional satellite on the outlined budget. The project is designed to be a critique of current political and cultural realities that are compromising earth’s ability to sustain life as we know it, in addition to providing a scaffold for encouraging people to explore the technosciences and aerospace as career paths. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521998452080-NV67AUW8CNW5EV5A89EO/Jeremy_Robinson_SpaceWalk.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Space Walk This work is produced on an Apple Mac using software called illustrator.

I found myself imagining a box whose contents would not be limited in what it could concoct. Particle physics has discovered all the stuff from which the known universe is made. This is described in the Standard Model of elementary particles. Every God’s Toolbox contains all these elementary particles; the ingredients not just to make any potion but also any universe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519264143736-PIEJBOMXY5AEP4LFHW2Q/Sculpture+III+-+Charalambous.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Sculpture III Feynman diagrams are named after Richard Feynman, who created a set of graphic symbols and rules that allow physicists to visually describe particle interactions. They are an essential tool for describing particle physics events and are used by all levels of scientist, from high school students to world leading researchers. I like the look of these diagrams, and I am impressed that such simple graphical representations can be so powerful in communicating complex concepts. In my art work I use the functional qualities of the diagrams as a starting point and try to enhance the visual qualities that I see by re-representing these graphical symbols in other forms. This has led to my producing a series of both graphical and sculptural works. The Feynman diagram for beta decay was the starting point for Sculpture III. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521980090287-9Q9YNO94FLWNU3EMLBLU/%E2%80%9CTimeless+Relations%E2%80%9D+by+Philip+Kilner.JPG Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Timeless Relations Although these actual polyhedral forms have been constructed in the last few months, their interrelationships (of space, number and form) are timeless. Your recognition of their interrelationships is perhaps an “intersection of the timeless with time”. The relationships can become apparent through careful observing, comparing and questioning. Discovery is best left to you as the discoverer, but three questions may serve as clues as to how and where to look - what are the numerical-geometric relationships between the forms when compared: 1) Radially? 2) Circumferentially? 3) Diametrically? Scientifically, the work has relevance to aspects of molecular chemistry, crystallography, virology, biology, architecture and the fields of structural design and construction. Prominent names associated with such forms include Plato, Archimedes, Kepler, Leonardo da Vinci, Albrecht Durer and, in more recent decades, the architect-designer Buckminster Fuller and the Nobel laureates who discovered the fullerine and graphene forms of carbon. In spite of this enduring fascination, and the fact that all of the polyhedral forms displayed and the types of their transformations are known, I believe that this internally-consistent, concentric, circular display is original. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521980092616-YZUWQA54KD6WXF6885HW/Timeless+Relations+oblique+view+PhilipKilner.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Timeless Relations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521980092527-XCEDMWJZLZTM70T98A0E/%E2%80%9CTimeless+Relations%E2%80%9D+by+Philip+Kilner+supplementary+image+1.JPG Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Timeless Relations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521980093521-VXD908KTCRN8Z8DPRQIC/%E2%80%9CTimeless+Relations%E2%80%9D+by+Philip+Kilner+supplementary+image+2.JPG Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Timeless Relations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520797299572-0N5O0VSMQEQE8N7QY4SJ/mug+shot3.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519264360462-KQ4623MHU22J9ZBOJ740/andy+charalambous.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519252606490-A5OJH8061C2YC3GNS3AS/Distintegration.jpeg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Disintigration This drawing began with expansion, an increase in pressure as the marks got smaller, then dissipated as the marks became too small to continue with, falling away from the mass in the middle. This drawing was completed at a time where carefully built plans fell apart after trauma to my family. Just as in the physical world of varying forces and reactions, small and large changes occur which I find it psychologically mirrored in the process I use to create work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519252564170-P7Q1F8PLSHVXXW4CMKYW/Tension.jpeg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Tension This composition changes depending entirely on which direction the light comes from. Using gravity changes to tilt, mix and change the direction of the ink flow, the acrylic pearlescent ink with standard acrylic ink separates, settles and dries at a different rate. This process creates fractals, eddies and sedimentation patterns of different coloured iridescence to draw into. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520796629574-J1KO3LULKL0V16JKPC8Q/Breaking+Point_1.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Breaking Point In a time characterised by economic crises, political conflicts and natural disasters, we are in a constant state of anxious anticipation without having the possibility of preventing further catastrophes. Breaking Point mobilises and critically interrogates this dark presentiment and perceived powerlessness. Taking inspiration from the ever changing nature of materials exposed to physical and environmental processes, Gustav Metzger’s auto-destructive art manifesto and trauma studies my work aims to create a visual and poetic parallelism between the physical and psychological nature of traumatic events. Breaking Point consists of a series of concrete cubes that crack and break into pieces in front of the audience by the use of expansive mortar. The collapse of each sculpture will follow its own rhythm, created by the manipulation of the material and the consistency of the block. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520796629396-ORLFSJCRNMLNPP4IURO0/Breaking+Point_2.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Breaking Point https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520796638053-7SSFONQJ4AQ6XW2IC4V2/Breaking+Point_3.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Breaking Point https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520795796756-BLYSQESKRJGI6D1KTRGM/Consensus.JPG Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521980325618-AVKVPOA19NOF9SFEKGOR/Rebecca+Nesbit+large.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1561386180437-2JSRN8UZQY4K2776N3OO/unnamed.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1510783944749-7Y6LCO3XOG1GOJYD3M2O/JennyWalsh-Portrait.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521985957642-JH439LZAQYM2WEEZ8Z7L/image-asset.jpeg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521988434834-TPLM69KTMMTR3K6GAPQA/NICOLASSTRAPPINI.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1522000671730-HZRVK7NO3FMPWVNUWIW0/tri-lunes.png Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Tri-lunes The Steiner tree problem is a problem in mathematics that asks for the shortest tree that interconnects a given set of points. Tri-lunes are special geometric regions which can be used to improve the efficiency of algorithms for solving Steiner problems. The artwork shows 1000 Steiner trees interconnecting three points, along with their associated tri-lunes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520795201042-Z8HH4B1TA8RNVQ9EUMB0/mona-5.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521997111664-M53L0K8HUIBCYZP962Z2/IMG_2571.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Spin Glass Spin Glass is inspired by head-direction cells, which are brain cells that create our sense of direction. Head-direction cells continually map the direction the head is facing as we move around. When the head turns, new head-direction cells fire, registering your new direction and linking it to your new perception. This installation represents a head-direction network that is controlled by the head movements of an exploring mouse. With the animal’s movements, light activity shifts through the network such that the active neurons always signal the direction of the mouse’s head, thus forming its sense of direction.

We briefly capture nature in whatever way we can to study its secrets, a habit for both scientists and artists. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519266533728-TYQA2OPOM5UZU75WB9X6/Share+the+Wire.png Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Share the Wire On the power lines near the CERN entrance, birds gather in pairs in the evenings. This print expresses the sense of community and hidden energy about the place, flowing between the people and the experiments. In 2016-17, invited by Art@CMS, I visited CERN with a group of MA Art and Science students from Central Saint Martins London and this work is a response to the experience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521985572076-SLSTPZF41FV3CUV7ZLV0/unnamed.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Collapsed Extreme events in the universe, such as blackholes, are nearly impossible to imagine. However, glass can be pushed through extreme forming techniques in the heat of the kiln while we think about these things. Stretching matter, bending and refracting light; all these actions are happening in the cosmos right now. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520794972980-Z3LRY39NX0VZAPDTDCQM/Hadronic_lines_daniela_brill.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Hadronic Lines Poetry has always been a language for communicating knowledge through emotions, metaphors and images. While doing research in CERN in January 2017 I wrote some verses by the Nicaraguan poet Ernesto Cardenal on some of the walls outside of the CLIC experiment, the LEAH experiment and on a hall of offices of the CMS experiment. In his book “Cántico cósmico” or cosmic canticle, he takes the reader on a trip through history, starting at the big bang, through humankind, religions, economy, sociology, up to today and even through death and god. His poems written on the walls of a scientific institution such as CERN, create a poetic reflection of what is going on inside the walls. I wrote the poems in Spanish since it is their original language. The poem you see here is written specifically for SciArt at the Cavendish, with the same intention as the ones in CERN - to use poetry as a language to communicate in a scientific world and put physics and poetry together in one space; worlds that seem far apart but are actually quite similar. The line that separates science and art - especially particle physics and poetry - becomes vague, fading away when investigating deeper into the philosophies behind scientific research. What is more poetic than quarks, light speed and anti-matter? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520794995859-32AX29OIC3BIS2HINW4R/allotropy_of_mine_daniela_brill.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - Allotropy of Mine The human body is 18% carbon. This means there are on average 10.8kg of carbon atoms building your cells, your tissue, your DNA, your glucose etc. According to science, the electrons and particles in the coal are exactly the same as the ones in our living body. What makes them different? What is missing, so that it is not inanimate matter but living matter? Maybe the observer will have some thoughts about where the “living part” of life can be found. Here, 10.8kg of carbon in the form of coal is displayed inside glass bottles. Each bottle represents the weight in carbon of different body parts in a poetic and imaginary way as the information on how much carbon the body contains in each organ or tissue is almost impossible to find. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521995142963-87BEZFV0J6IXP8Q9WR66/v2FB.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1522663853629-SJQOQ8CTRAQN4TVO555G/Victoria_westerman_Selfportraitwithatoms.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1519265331618-ADOSI4IF7RL186131EDN/170530HeadShot.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1521982364321-52IFGR0LOITYAOWWYVNJ/Priya.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d61e66bebafbe0830e81c5/1520797446940-8JZSLROLAGRGDWJDOSTP/Fox_SD_PET+scan+.jpg Online Gallery - SciArt at the Cavendish 2018 - PET Scan Positron emission tomography (PET) scan of a healthy brain.

The scientific Prizes reveal discoveries which have changed the course of history. Just four women have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and two have received the Nobel Prize in Physics. One of these women, Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, was a member of the Cavendish Laboratory. She received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1964 “for her determinations by X-ray techniques of the structures of important biochemical substances”. It is very rare to see photos of Dorothy Hodgkin wearing jewellery, and I wonder whether that would be different today. Whilst Nobel Prizes are still overwhelmingly awarded to men, science is much more welcoming to women and so jewellery is a more common sight in laboratories and at scientific meetings. I was able to find a single picture of Dorothy Hodgkin deep in conversation with Linus Pauling, wearing a brooch - which appears to be the rays of a stylised sun. I combined these rays with the depiction of a penicillin molecule, perhaps the most famous of the biochemical structures she revealed. This brooch celebrates Dorothy Hodgkin’s achievements, the growing role of women in science, and the passion for science which makes so many people make public statements such as wearing SciArt jewellery and clothing. https://sciart.org.uk/affiliations daily 0.75 2023-02-23
