**Abstract:** 
For Everyone - Artist Geraldine Cox works with physicists to find resonant new expression for the beautiful things 
we have discovered and inspires others to do the same: children construct mobiles celebrating atoms, dancers 
absorb and emit light, grown-ups cut intricate paper photons for a giant collage of sunlight, and in mesmerising 
paintings of 30,000 pieces, Geraldine reveals connections between two entangled particles. In this illustrated talk 
Geraldine will share how she brings our knowledge to colourful life in our imagination and emotions.

**Bio:** 
Geraldine has degrees in physics and fine art and began her project called ‘Finding Patterns’ in 2011 at Imperial 
College London with an ‘Artist in Residence Award’ from the Leverhulme Trust. Since then, her work has grown to
involve scientists from other universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Durham and MIT. In 2020 she received the 
American Institute of Physics ‘Andrew Gemant Award’ for "articulating deep physics concepts through visual arts 
and other media, reaching a remarkable range of people in innovative ways and sharing her passion for the 
expression of physical truths”.
