Changing Perspectives: connecting art and science

Changing Perspectives was an exciting series of events that explored the relationships between art and science.  Through exhibitions, talks, workshops and performances, we wanted to explore how art can draw different disciplines together, open up discussions about contemporary issues and spark new  insights for all.

Staff and students at the University of Bristol have long pursued science-art  conversations and collaborations as a way to open up new ways of thinking about their work.  The results of those collaborations are often exciting, authentic and moving pieces of art.  By sharing that work and those conversations with the public, we wanted  to see what new ideas might emerge.

As part of Changing Perspectives we fostered ongoing collaboration between artists and scientists, and between their groups and organisations.

Changing Perspectives was organised by the Centre for Public Engagement at the University of Bristol, with the support and contributions of many students, academics and artists from within and outside the University.
