Mark
Part of my creative practice is to design and run projects, events, participatory installations and immersive experiences that make scientific ideas and principles accessible. The workshops encourage creative thought and practice and emphasise the how maths, science, art, design and music relate to one another and every day life.

I am available to lead workshops, chair debates and talks on the subjects of:

- physical processes as works of art
- graphic narrative and science communication
- science fiction and representations of the future
- art, science and biomedical illustration
- medical illustration, anatomical art and working with scientists
- modes or representation and depictions of reality
- craft practices their role in the history of measurment
- statistics and craft
- visual art and representations of the un-visible
- DIY science experiments
- Art and Science throughout history
- observation and abstraction in art and science
