"Art and Science" challenge
Due date: December 1, 2010
Rules:
You may choose any branch of science for your inspiration. For example, botany may suggest flowers or trees; astronomy- the moon or sun or stars; architecture- the structure of a building, etc. Someone wanted to do mathematics and that certainly is a science. And, of course you may choose to use the imagery of pollen grains, or DNA microscopically, etc. Just remember that it is the scientific aspect of the flowers, etc. that constitute the theme.
Your work is to be accompanied by a statement regarding how science has inspired this work in 50 words or less.
Size: to be no larger than 18" by
18". A uniform size is dictated so that the works will fit easily into a box for shipping.
Pleated Sleeve: The usual 4 inch sleeve on the back is required for hanging
Deadline: December 1st, 2010. You can, of course, bring your piece to the November meeting or deliver it to Sharon Malec by 12/01/10.
We are trying to avoid the holiday stress and chaos by asking that the pieces be finished before the holiday season.
Any further questions should be addressed to Sharon Malec or Necia Wallace whose e-mail addresses are:
