Beauty is in the eye of the scientist...
The 3rd Annual Science is Beautiful Competition aims to generate interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) by having high school students use various forms of art to conceptualize science in unique and interesting ways! Participants, whether it be done individually or in a group, must create an original work of art that either uses a scientific concept to create the main elements of the work (e.g. freezing flowers in liquid nitrogen and photographing them as they shatter on impact), or use more conventional artistic media to represent a scientific concept in an original way (e.g. a painting or musical composition representing the Big Bang).
Works of art entered in the contest, accompanied by the descriptions and participant information (full name(s), grade and school as well as a signed consent form) must be submitted by Friday, May 29th, 2015, before 4pm. Only one entry per person or group is allowed. All entries (or any questions about the contest) should be sent to Let's Talk Science at McMaster at ltspp@mcmaster.ca.
