The new exhibition in the Colyer-Fergusson Gallery, an exploration of beauty in the scientific environment from the School of Biosciences, is now open.

Curated by Dr Dan Lloyd, the collection of images, each generated through engagement with current research, showcases the beauty in scientific data. The exhibition aims to shed some light on laboratory life and the process of discovery in the biological sciences.

Every image shown has a story to tell, and explores cutting-edge research in the fields of biomedical science, biochemistry, genetics and biotechnology. In addition to introducing new and interesting concepts at the forefront of scientific research, the exhibition aims to encourage the viewer to explore their own perspectives on art within the context of the biological sciences.

The exhibition forms the backdrop to an exciting lunchtime concert on Weds 1 February in the concert-hall, ‘Cellular Dynamics,’ which brings together science and music in image-projection and time-lapse photography, accompanied by live music for piano by Philip Glass Tarik O’Regan, and Gavin Bryars, performed by Dan Harding and Matthew King (details here: https://www.kent.ac.uk/music/whatson.html?tab=february).

Admission is free, and the exhibition is on display during building opening hours. The exhibition is generously supported by Creative Campus.
