That this House congratulates
the artists Clare O Hagan and Denise Wyllie who are working with
Professor John Hartley and his Cancer Research United Kingdom funded
team at the Department of Oncology at University College London
on their 42 metre cross-media textile artwork, Transformations in
Science and Art at the Institute of Child Health, 30 Guildford Street
WC1N 1EH; notes that the textile examines the growing awareness
of the biological blueprint, DNA, and the vital role it plays in
the development of medical research and drug therapy; believes that
it reflects the dedication, openness and achievements of the scientists
and represents a celebration of the inherent creativity of their
work; and further notes, most importantly, that it aims to transform
fearful attitudes to cancer and chemotherapy drug treatment by showing
the incredible advances in scientific research and remediation. |
