On the 11th of December the Department of Biology had its ”annual” Lucia Art Show in Building D. A dozen of creative people in our staff showed their works of art for a severalfold bigger crowd of colleagues. Everywhere you saw people discussing over a glass of wine or beer showing variably happy smiles on their faces and signs of serious thinking. Many tastes in art could be satisfied.
Water colours of inner and outer nature, machine resculptures, abstract textiles and poster prints, freestyle plant binding, morphed bird hockey players, as well as potato portraits and video art, was exhibited. Very popular was also to try to make 書法 calligraphy, assisted by some of our expert Chinese PhD students and Postdocs. People painted anything from ”cat” and ”pig” to ”genomics” and ”pheromones”. Eventually, people gathered in the Panorama Bar for some Afterart.
