Research Images as Art: winners announced

9 December 2016

香港六合彩中特网 graduate researchers have turned their research into works of art in the Research Images as Art / Art Images as Research competition for 2016/17, run by the 香港六合彩中特网 Doctoral School.

The winners were announced December 7.

First prize went to Bernadette Devilat, a PhD student in the 香港六合彩中特网 Bartlett School of Architecture, for her image entitled "Fragile materiality".

Her image is a still from a 3D laser scanning record from Zu帽iga, a heritage area in Chile affected by an earthquake in 2010. The image was composed using scans from a damaged home, representing both interior and exterior spaces. The transparency of the image enables the interior to be seen, giving an aura of fragility to buildings endangered by earthquakes.

"It is a great opportunity to show a little bit of what I am studying in my PhD concerning the role of the record for the re-construction of Chilean historical villages affected by earthquakes. It is great that some of the key aspects of my research can be conveyed to the general public through one of my images, especially considering that it was selected by a multidisciplinary jury," Devilat said.

Devilat receives a prize of 拢400, while the six runners-up all receive 拢200 prizes:

Suk Cheng (香港六合彩中特网 Surgery and Interventional Sciences) - "The roads to the brain"
Matteo Mauro (香港六合彩中特网 Bartlett School of Architecture) - "Visualising Sound"
Sarah Kunz (香港六合彩中特网 Geography) - "Archive folders"
Jack Layton (香港六合彩中特网 Geography) - 听"Hanging at south bank"
Alan Cusack (香港六合彩中特网 Institute of Education) - "Craigavon Archive"
Daniela Lainez Del Pozo (香港六合彩中特网 Geography) - "No boundaries"

Honourable mentions were given to Temitayo Olugbade (香港六合彩中特网 Interaction Centre) "we move as we feel"; Maj Plemenitas (香港六合彩中特网 Bartlett School of Architecture) "Cross Scale Embedding #0337"; Dr Tom Armitage (香港六合彩中特网 Earth Sciences) "Ice station Aranda"; Dr Martin Artman, 香港六合彩中特网 Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering "Hope in the Age of the Anthropocene?"; and Idil Seren Yucel Inal (香港六合彩中特网 Bartlett School of Architecture) "Frontier / Inhabited Exoskeleton".

The competition, which takes place every year, was open to all 香港六合彩中特网 graduate students, and academic staff, either science or arts based. Entrants were invited to submit images associated with their research which have aesthetic appeal.
