Deconstructing patterns: art and science in conversation

You know nature is full of patterns – but turns out there’s also loads that simply can’t be seen with the naked eye. That’s where science comes in: this exhibition reveals the pretty patterns that make up our world on a molecular and cellular level. But the Crick Institute has also commissioned artists to respond to them, with sound artist Chu-Li Shewring and poet Sarah Howe inspired by genomic data sets, and Helen Pynor’s photographic installation exploring the movement patterns of the fruit fly. We’re buzzing for it.
