Deconstructing Patterns: Art and Science in Conversation

What's on:

• Deconstructing Patterns: Art and Science in Conversation at The Francis Crick Institute

Opening times:

• Wednesday 10:00 – 20:00
• Thursday 10:00 – 16:00
• Friday 10:00 – 16:00
• Saturday 10:00 – 16:00
• On now until Saturday, 1 December 2018

What it's all about:
A myriad of intriguing patterns exist throughout the natural world, many of which are visible to the naked eye. For biomedical researchers at the Crick, however, the patterns they seek are minute cellular and molecular forms. Deconstructing Patterns provides a glimpse into three intricate developmental patterns studied at the Crick, each one introduced by a unique artwork. In this context, deconstruction is a fundamentally creative process. By taking patterns apart, both the artists and scientists are seeking new insights into the puzzle of how the complexity of the human body arises.
