High Water Line: “Translating Science Into Art”

 

The panel discussion “Translating Science Into Art” brought together artists and outreach experts to explore how the environmental humanities can translate science into art — with a focus on sea-level rise — and the visual strategies that work best for making scientific information more relatable to everyone.

Panel speakers are listed below.

  • Karen Florini, Vice President for Programs, Climate Central
  • Jeff Whetstone, Director and Professor of Visual Arts in the Lewis Center for the Arts, Princeton University
  • Dawn DeDeaux, Multimedia Artist, New Orleans

“Translating Science Into Art” is the second of three panels organized as part of High Water Line: New Jersey, a public-facing project organized by Christina Gerhardt, the 2021-22 Barron Visiting Professor in the Environmental Humanities in the High Meadows Environmental Institute, that will walk and chalk New Jersey’s future shoreline as projected by science.
