Constelaciones y Supernovas


UW Planetarium Arts is excited to partner with Colectivo Arte GUENDA, an intergenerational women's art collective based in Oaxaca, Mexico, to exhibit their collection of 22 paintings inspired by SDSS's fiber-optic plug plates. This artistic cross-cultural exchange highlights the longstanding international scientific collaborations between Mexico and the US: both UW and UNAM played key roles in the development of SDSS in the 1990s. Through a month-long exhibition and an opening night of artist-scientist talks and panels, we explore how artists engage with and disseminate scientific knowledge through visual expression and emphasize the importance of global collaboration.
