Genetic Reflections
“Genetic Reflections” is a public science art installation created by Madison-based artist Angela Johnson in collaboration with UW-Madison genetics professor Ahna Skop. The science art piece is designed to highlight genetic research on campus and encourage visitors to interact and support science. It is permanently installed outside of the UW-Madison Genetics/Biotech Auditorium, across from room 1360. Funding and space was generously provided by the National Science Foundation (MCB-1716298), MRSEC, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison Biotechnology Center. NOTE: A traveling exhibition of "Genetic Reflections" is available. Please read the details of the requirements for installing and shipping here. More information about Angela Johnson and her art (https://angelajohnsonartist.com/). Hosting institutions will need to pay for shipping and installation costs. Please contact Ahna ([email protected]) if you have any questions. |
