Agnes Chavez is an artist and educator participating in a two-week research stay through the ATLAS Experiment at CERN.

Tuesday 3 May at 4 p.m.
CERN Library (52 1-052)

Artist/educator, Agnes Chavez will share video outcomes from Projecting Particles, an Art + Science + Education collaboration with ATLAS. The Sci-Art project combines the International Masterclass with Projection Art in a series of teen-led youth workshops and projection events. In this presentation Chavez will share her vision and describe the research and development behind the project, now in its third year. 

For the Projecting pARTicles series of art installations she has formed an interdisciplinary team of programmers, artists, scientists and educators to investigate how we can create art and education interventions inspired by emerging particle physics theories. Chavez’s art experiments with data visualization, sound and projections to create participatory environments. She collaborates with programmers to create algorithmic drawings projected on to buildings, walls and spaces. "This work explores our relationship with nature and technology through sensorial installations that allow us to explore science concepts through felt experiences," she says.
