Art & Science Encounter
In an increasingly fluid artistic and scientific landscape, collaborations between artists and researchers are opening up new ways of producing, experimenting and sharing knowledge. These encounters are unique: they shift perspectives, invent new languages, and give research the ability to reach audiences it does not always connect with on its own.
This morning session invites you to discover inspiring projects and diverse formats of art-science collaboration, through initiatives led by KIKK, the University of Namur and the University of Luxembourg.
The goal is to explore how artistic approaches can help researchers communicate their work, open up new perspectives on their research, and build meaningful connections with society.
