WORKING AT THE INTERSECTION OF ART, SCIENCE, NATURE + TECHNOLOGY

We are a cross disciplinary group of creatives, academics, researchers, students, designers and developers exploring innovative perspectives to modern challenges.

What We Do

  • The ArtScience Lab is a dynamic cross-pollination space where purpose and pioneering technology connect art, culture, academia, industry, conservation and philanthropy. It is a place where multidisciplinary artists, innovators and industry experts combine to solve real-world challenges and transform the way we experience our natural and urban environments.

  • Our signature expertise is in developing digital twin assets. This is applied to R&D, industry, art and environmental projects. The process of creating virtual replicas of real world assets involves using cutting edge technologies for both data capture, processing and visual outputs. In addition, the work creates repositories of digital assets that have historical, cultural and economic value.

  • As a hub of cross-pollination of art, R&D and industry, the ArtScience Lab is the place to investigate emerging trends. The union of art, science and technology is opening new pathways for thinking about innovation in the face of modern challenges. The concept of backing up the planet is highlighting the cultural and historical significance of preserving natural environments through digital archives.
