ASCUS Art & Science Managing Director Miriam Walsh says:

With all the changes that have happened as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, this year’s exhibition feels even more relevant to the ways complex scientific language and processes have permeated our day to day lives. With works that capture genetically modified organisms and cutting edge image scanning technology, grown and captured right here in our very own ASCUS Lab, to Edinburgh’s coastline in the form of data being brought into the gallery space, we are excited to invite audiences to Summerhall for a series of exhibitions that promise to successfully blur the lines between art and science in novel ways.

Summerhall Exhibitions Manager Kasia Jackowska says:

As a former Veterinary College cum arts venue, we at Summerhall are especially aware of the extraordinary things that can happen when art and science combine. We’re always thrilled to take part in the Edinburgh Science Festival, and Syncrasy will give festival-goers a unique opportunity to look at the scientific nitty-gritty from a whole new perspective.
