Transformations in Science and Art is exciting, alive and evolving into new areas.

It started simply with an invitation from Professor John Hartley to the artists to visit his Cancer Research UK funded laboratory in London.

From this visit, came the commitment from the artists to celebrate the scientist’s remarkable achievements. The intense vibrant world they see in microscopic detail is reflected in the art shown here, which is for sale.

The artists were driven to consider the people whose lives have gone before them. Their contribution to the mass of knowledge in Cancer Research has led to increasingly sophisticated drug therapies from which we benefit.

Transformations celebrates and honours the people who have faced, and those who are facing a future with cancer in the beautiful Whitework piece which accompanies it.

In Constructing a New Model, the artists look to discover creative strategies to equip a person to manage the changes they experience in facing cancer. They aim to develop ways to integrate living a future with cancer, making this a “new normal.”

In making art, making the invisible – beliefs, emotions, experiences – visible in their work, it is the artists aim to enable people facing cancer, to move from isolation and anxiety to connection, from fear and powerlessness to personal empowerment.

Transformation – in all its forms, offers a vision of cancer that is engaging, powerful and positive.

Thank you for supporting the work.
