Seasons's greetings from the VIRUSong team!

Captured emptiness

Congrats to Maria Bandurist (UCBL), who attended the vernissage of the Figure 1.A. The Scientific Art Exhibition in Lausanne. Her artwork, « Captured Emptiness, » was selected as a part of the main exhibition, Extreme Environments, which was held from September 30th to October 19th. As Maria said, « It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with new people, share experiences with fellow scientists and artists from Institut Lumière Matière as well as other institutions and take home a postcard of my artwork. I am very grateful for such an enriching experience. » but it is also a great opportunity to advertise the VIRUSong project!
