SEA SOUP
WINNER - VISIONS OF SCIENCE EMERGING ARTIST AWARD, UNIVERSITY OF BATH SCIENCE ART PRIZE
2018
'Sea Soup' was created in collaboration with PHD student Russell Arnott, depicting mesocosm facilities at Umeå Marine Science Centre and the community of phytoplankton species in the Gulf of Bothnia. The mesocosms simulate varying turbulence and temperature levels through convection currents, represented in the image by varying sizes of waves. Presented below in 4 separate sections as exhibited, representing the 4 mesocosm environments, and as a single full length image.
I was genuinely humbled to win the award for emerging artist, especially when judged alongside around 180 other entries!
"Working alongside Scott is a great experience; I'm impressed at how quickly he can produce quality illustrations in his own unique style. Being that our projects were themed around the marine environment, Scott ensured he understood the scientific concepts involved and it was great to see how well he was able to represent them in his work!”
