Imagining the Brain is a project that invites artists and scientists to take a deep look at the science of the brain and to communicate really complex scientific, ethical, philosophical and social issues using art.

Do I have to study both art and science to enter?
No, you have to have a keen interest in both, though.

How it works: you produce a piece of artwork in any format on one of the two topics detailed below.

If it is possible to do a piece of work that fits in with the one of the topics and also with your art coursework, that is fine. We exhibit all entries in a public exhibition.

The artwork is judged by a panel of professional artists and scientists and prizes are awarded for 1st (£120), 2nd (£90) & 3rd (£60) place.

We will endeavor to use your artwork to communicate science to varied audiences all over the world. You will always be credited for your artwork.
