Wild’s regular lines and shapes make one think of maps and Morris’ meandering formations with their seemingly abstract appearance remind us of a pristine territory to be mapped. However, how can you squeeze these interpretations into established categories, especially when we contemplate them in the space of a gallery? What kind of interpretations, symbols and extrapolations do they evoke? In the end, aren’t they all mapping different territories? What happens when scientific subjects are relocated in an artistic context? And how can art generate or reveal scientific content? When is science art?<br class=""><br class="">On January 29, we invited physicist Kari Dalnoki-Veress (Soft Condensed Matter Group, McMaster University) to give us his opinion on the subject and to help us respond to these questions.
