Women in Science

Every year, Dundee hosts a 'Women in Science' Festival . This year, I have been lucky enought to have been involved in two different exhibitions. 'Portraits of Women in Science' is an exhibition of photographs of women who work in different areas of science, technology, engineering and maths. The exhibition runs from the 1st - 19th March 2012.

Below I have posted a few of the photographs I took during the project.

Professor Caroline Wilkinson


Professor Tracy Palmer


Dr Elli Gilroy


Professor Lesley Torrance


Dr Victoria Cowling



A book of the portraits alongside interviews with all the featured women is available from Dundee University Press

Window designs for new Medical School in Dundee

Earlier this year I entered a competition to design windows for a new Medical School Building in University of Dundee. I'm happy to say my designs were chosen to be used. See below:

The designs will be placed on the windows at the front of the building which was designed by ARCHIAL

Forensic Facial Reconstruction Texturing work

The following four images are of an interactive exhibit in the Science Museum, London in the newly reopened 'Who Am I?' exhibit.

The original forensic facial reconstruction, of Bleadon Man, was carried out by Dr Caroline Wilkinson of the Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification. A bronze of the original reconstructed head is also in the exhibition alongside the skeletal remains. http://www.ingenious.org.uk/See/?s=S2&target=ctx&DCID=10321675

To update the exhibit, a digital version of Dr Wilkinson's reconstruction was commissioned. I was asked to create a textured rotation of the reconstruction as part of an interactive piece describing the reconstruction process.

The following images are of the exhibit and a still from the animated digital version of the head.



The next images are of A Pictish Woman whose remains were found in Lundin Links, Fife. Her skeleton is in the collection of McManus Galleries and Museum, Dundee. The original reconstruction was carried out by Dr Wilkinson several years ago. (Image below)


I created a textured rotation of the reconstruction which is now part of the exhibition in the 'Landscapes and Lives' gallery in the newly refurbished McManus.
