“One of the most surprising things that has come out of the program is not just how the science has influenced the artist but how the art has influenced the science,” says Dr. Wiener. “It has been a way for us to communicate our science to a broader audience and to bring in the creative thinking that artists bring to the table.”

Now in its seventh year, the Artist-at-Sea program continues to bridge the gap between art and science, fostering collaborations that push the boundaries of storytelling and research. Artists like Hannon, Hiller, Hua, and Jin have used their experiences at sea to create works that not only reflect the beauty and complexity of our oceans but also raise awareness about the urgent need to protect them.

As the program evolves, new artists will have the opportunity to join expeditions and contribute their unique perspectives to the ongoing exploration of our oceans. Through their art, they will continue to inspire curiosity, spark conversations, and shape our understanding of the world beneath the waves.

Carlie Wiener was truly amazed by the innovative work of the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s ROV operators during her recent expedition. The clarity of the ROV’s film footage left a lasting impression on her, showcasing the team’s creativity and inventiveness. One particular moment that stood out to her was when a part of the ROV broke down, and the team utilized a 3D printer to replicate the part on board the research vessel, emphasizing the importance of resourcefulness when conducting research far from land.

Engaging with researchers from various disciplines around the world allowed artists like Carlie Wiener to reimagine scientific inquiry through different art forms. The Artist-at-Sea program provided her with the opportunity to share her discoveries and interpretations of the marine world through her artwork. Schmidt Ocean Institute even includes one piece from each artist in its collection, showcasing the work globally to advance knowledge about the ocean.

Dr. Wiener noted that the program not only influenced artists but also impacted the scientists on board. Many Artist-at-Sea participants have developed long-term collaborations with scientists, continuing to work together on projects even after their time at sea. This unique blend of art and science has led to fruitful relationships and groundbreaking research endeavors.

Recent expeditions have welcomed artists like Max Hooper Schneider and Jill Pelto, who are currently working on a trip off the coast of Chile. Their artistic interpretations of the marine environment add a creative dimension to scientific exploration, fostering a deeper understanding of the ocean’s complexities.

The Artist-at-Sea program has proven to be a valuable platform for artists and scientists to collaborate, inspiring new perspectives and approaches to marine research. Through their artwork, these artists contribute to a greater appreciation of the ocean’s beauty and fragility, sparking important conversations about conservation and sustainability.

Gardening has long been known to have numerous physical health benefits, but did you know that it can also have a positive impact on mental health? In recent years, research has shown that spending time in a garden or tending to plants can have a profound effect on our mental well-being.

One of the main benefits of gardening for mental health is the sense of accomplishment that comes from nurturing a plant and watching it grow. This can boost self-esteem and confidence, as well as provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment. The act of caring for something outside of ourselves can also help to reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Gardening can also be a great stress reliever. The act of working with soil and plants has been shown to reduce levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, in the body. In addition, spending time outdoors and connecting with nature can have a calming effect on the mind and help to reduce anxiety and depression.

Furthermore, gardening can provide a form of mindfulness practice. By focusing on the task at hand and being present in the moment, we can let go of worries and negative thoughts. This can help to improve mood and overall mental well-being.

In addition to these mental health benefits, gardening also offers physical benefits such as increased physical activity, improved hand-eye coordination, and exposure to vitamin D from the sun. All of these factors can contribute to a healthier body and mind.

So whether you have a large backyard or just a small balcony, consider starting a garden to reap the many mental health benefits that gardening has to offer. Not only will you enjoy the beauty of your plants, but you may also find that your mental well-being improves as well.
