During the residency at NCBS, Stefanie proposes to look at the interfaces of art and science with a project called ‘Transient Portraits’. She will facilitate a collaborative creation of a series of ‘transient portraits’. This collaboration involves science, art, computing and education. The project aims to highlight the ever-present dialectic between transience and permanence in our lives.
