Artist Statement: Diversity of thought and experience is central in my work. My collaboration with scientists has led to the invention of nano-paint that can detect cancer and other diseases. I illustrate nanomaterials' unique characteristics through my art. The research enables me to address how we create and understand our surroundings. Integration of artist/researcher/scientist isn’t merely superficial since it has resulted in tangible discoveries and patents from our collaborations. Our ability to expand limitations of thought and share our diverse experiences has pushed the boundaries of art and has contributed to the creativity of research labs for which true discovery can incubate.
