Call for artists
Art workshop/s in secondary school
A group of scientists based at the University of Exeter are looking for an artist to run an art workshop in a local secondary school
This Artist Callout is being circulated on behalf of the Living Systems Institute, University of Exeter. Read on for more details from the team:
We are a group of scientists based in the Living Systems Institute at the University of Exeter, where we carry out research on parasites called microsporidia. These fascinating organisms infect a huge range of hosts including humans and farmed animals, causing disease and, in some cases, death. Despite their importance, these parasites are not well-known by the general public, with most people never having heard of them. We are creating an information booklet about microsporidia that we can use for outreach work – to inform the public about microsporidia and parasitism in general. We would like to hire an artist to run an art workshop in a local secondary school with the aim of producing images for this booklet.
