Meet the Artists| Art, science, and nature at VOLTA 2023
Throughout history, people have sought to gain a perspective of their place in the world. From the early Renaissance pioneers to Impressionism and 20th century Abstract Expressionism, artists have looked to nature as place of solace and for inspiration. Now, as the world looks for solutions that will help imagine a positive climate future, art can continue as a crucial tool to bring scientific ideas to life, as well as act as a tangible format to communicate complex ideas.
