"The engineer in me wants to minimize friction and inertia to make the air visible. The architect studies matters of scale and proportion. The navigator and sailor want to know the strength and direction of the wind. The artist wants to understand its changing shape. Meanwhile, the child wants to play."
State of Decay
"Purcell's first collaboration with Stephen Jay Gould, Illuminations (1986), features photographs of natural-history specimens chosen from the backrooms of collections like Harvard's Museum of Comparative Zoology. The specimens are not arranged according to customary scientific groupings. Rather, they are displayed in alphabetical order, from albatross to zozymus"
Mara G. Haseltine
" Mara G. Haseltine's love of the natural sciences and form has been a constant theme throughout her work. Her work is figurative in that even her most abstract forms relate to the internal-external body, as well as human psychology. In the past few years she has taken the leap to combine her art practice with scientific experiments and environmental restoration."
Bathsheba Sculpture
by 2 others"I like to think about shapes, and occasionally I think up a new one, and usually they come out very symmetrical. I'm like any artist in that it's difficult to explain exactly how and why this happens. So I'll write about my odd points. Apparently I've studied more math than most artists."

BOMB Magazine: Home Page
by 1 other"BOMB was named after Wyndham Lewis’s Blast, a 1917 journal edited by artists and writers. Following in this tradition, BOMB’s editors are also all practitioners of the arts. BOMB was launched because its early editors saw a gap between the way art and literature were discussed and understood by those individuals outside the creative arts and those within the disciplines. BOMB bridges that gap through intellectual, provocative, and daring interviews between artists speaking about their own process, as well as original poetry and fiction"
