Synaptic Connections: Art & The Brain

A Curator’s Tour

The human brain, the most complex entity in the known universe, has long been a source of fascination and mystery. For years, it was unmapped territory but scientific breakthroughs are exposing new and exciting dimensions and greater understanding is emerging around the science of the brain, the arts and creativity.

How does the brain inspire and allow us to create art? The Circle will explore this question at the interactive and multi disciplinary exhibition entitled Synaptic Connections: Art and the Brain at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. Curator Dale Sheppard will walk Circle members and their guests through an intimate exploration of the exhibit, where we will observe art and neuroscience meld in an exhibition featuring painting, photography, drawing, mixed media, textile, installation, sculpture and video.
