Weaving Science into Sculpture

What do basket weaving, climate change, and sculpture have in common? Artist Nathalie Miebach literally weaves scientific data related to meteorology, climate change, and astronomy into brightly colored, three-dimensional sculptures. She describes how — and why — she creates these singular pieces that expand the boundaries of how scientific information can be represented and what art can mean.
