Pint of Science
Art and science have always walked hand in hand.
For the first time, Brazil hosts Creative Reactions, a festival promoted by Pint of Science worldwide, featuring artworks created in collaboration with scientists. The works address themes such as atoms and galaxies, marvelous minds, civilization and society, body and health, planet Earth, and innovation and technology.
The Creative Reactions movement originated in 2015 in Cambridge, United Kingdom.
Image inspired by an article published in the journal Science: Plastic ingestion as an evolutionary trap; towards a holistic undestanding, which presents the impact of the material on food chains and various branches of the tree of life.
The article is authored by Brazilians Robson G. Santos and Ryan Andrade, and Argentine Gabriel E. Machovsky-Capuska. The trio explores how plastic ingestion caused by human actions poses a problem for the evolution of animal species in marine, terrestrial, and freshwater environments.
