Art and science are usually thought to be opposite ends of the spectrum; one’s straightforward and practical, the other is difficult to define and aesthetic. Poudre Studio Artists have bridged this gap, presenting works of art either displaying the artistic side of science or generated through scientific processes. While you’re there, check out Loco-Motion, which opens Friday, March 1.
