[pccgrads] "At The Sea Ice Edge" Art+Science debut: Wed 10/29 at 3:30 in OSB

[PROGRAM ON CLIMATE CHANGE via Pcc_all via pccgrads]

Calling artists, scientists, and the generally curious!

You are invited to come experience "At The Sea Ice Edge", an art + science collaboration with artist Jill Pelto designed to highlight research from NASA’s SASSIE (Salinity and Stratification at the Sea Ice Edge) project. In collaboration with members of the SASSIE science team, Jill has created a series of four paintings that convey the science of SASSIE and the impact of climate change on the Arctic, with each piece directly incorporating environmental data. This event is a debut of this collection of artwork and will include a seminar followed by a reception.

During the seminar, chief scientists Pete Gaube and Kyla Drushka will introduce SASSIE, Jill will present her artwork and creative process, and researchers Carlyn Schmidgall and Marie Zahn will share the scientific context behind the data featured in the art. The reception will showcase Jill’s pieces alongside opportunities to interact with SASSIE scientists and hands-on displays from the field campaign.
