The Bell Museum Resident Artist Research Project offers artists an exclusive opportunity to engage with University researchers and scientific collections while exploring the application of art as a medium for interpreting science in the public realm.

MCAD MFA alumni Sreekishen (Sree) Nair (Sculpture ’14) is selected for Resident Artist for the Fall of 2015.

Sreekishen (Sree) Nair is a visual artist whose privilege is to share beautiful things that uplift the spirit by delighting the senses. To this end, Sree employs a wide variety of materials and techniques, and tailors these to create an aesthetic engagement that a he hopes is as enriching as it is enjoyable. Being inspired by the elegance of different biological forms, Sree is completely committed to the fusion of the arts and sciences, and the rich possibilities that such a mixture yields. Sree is excited to work with the staff at the Bell Museum to celebrate this fusion, by exploring the beauty of natural science with the methodology of artistic craft.
