On November 17th, we held the reception for our annual Art in Science competition.
We were pleased to have received 40 submissions from departments across UCI’s campus. The stellar quality was impressive! Our guest judge, Professor Stephen Barker and Dean of the Claire Trevor School of the Arts, eloquently told us his vision for the winners: how one may make emotions and perceptions come alive in art.
Professor Barker and our very own and much beloved adviser, Professor Eric O. Potma from the Department of Chemistry, came to unanimous decision on the top two winners and one honorable mention.
Honorable Mention: Neha Garg, “LCAT Particles”
2nd Place: Haoxin Zhange, “Fear of the Brain”
1st Place: Yasemin Sarigul-Klijn, “Musicglove”
With a good dose of art and snacks, we bid 2016, adieu. To view this year’s, and past year’s winners, drop by the lobby in Natural Sciences 2 when you need a study/lab break!
