Science on Tap | "Creativity and Science" with artist Lia Halloran
Celebrating Chapman's Discover Research & Arts Week (DRAW)
Tuesday, October 3, 2017
6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. PST
Science on Tap: "Creativity and Science" with artist and Chapman professor of art, Lia Halloran.
Open to the public, Science on Tap is a series of casual moderated discussions featuring experts who explore the intersection of science and culture.
In October, we'll be joined by artist and Chapman art professor Lia Halloran. Halloran’s work often makes use of scientific concepts as a starting point and explores how perception, time and scale inform the human desire to understand the world and our emotional and psychological place within it.
Halloran has participated in several interdisciplinary projects with a variety of collaborators to curate exhibitions, write on art and science intersections and experiment with new media technologies. She is currently working on a book with physicist and 2017 Nobel Prize winner Kip Thorne about the Warped Side of the Universe with Kip's poetry and her paintings. In 2016 Halloran was awarded a Art Works Grant from the National Endowment of the Arts for the project Your Body is a Space that Sees. Learn more at http://www.liahalloran.com
ChapmanU Science on Tap is for science lovers (and novices) in the community who want to enjoy good beverages, good food and fascinating conversation. Join us! We'll be gathering at one of our favorite spots: Provisions Market in Old Towne Orange.
