Episode 9: Hayley Gillespie - Art.Science.Gallery.

December 16th, 2017  |  57 mins 23 secs

The intersection of art and science might not be obvious at first glance but the two are actually very intertwined and have been for 100's of years. From the drawings and studies of Da Vinci and Charles Darwin to modern day illustrations of black holes, art as a way to imagine, interpret, and convey the ideas of science has never been more relevant. And Dr. Hayley Gillespie, founder of Austin's Art.Science.Gallery. is for me the best person to explain Science Art and share stories of scientists who were and are also artists and what it's like to run a gallery and support artists in this city.
