With Holly Bolick, Bishop Museum Invertebrate Zoology Collections Manager and Pratisha Budhiraja, Scientific Artist

Recorded Thursday, May 16, 2019 in Atherton Hālau

Bishop Museum scientists and the Honolulu Printmakers are working together on a Science-Art project that will showcase current research and collections. A series of talks will highlight the research and artistic process of these collaborations. The first talk is inspired by the intricate structural forms, patterns, and strange “colors” (metallic and translucent) of deep-sea invertebrates. Come and hear about the deep-sea research being done in the waters around the Hawaiian Islands, new specimens being added to the Invertebrate Zoology Collection, and how all this translates into an artistic presentation of science.

The art pieces created through this collaboration will be exhibited at Bishop Museum in the spring of 2020.

This program is coordinated by the Bishop Museum Education Department to celebrate the extraordinary history, culture, and environment of Hawaiʻi and the Pacific.
