From 6 to 10 January 2025, the CORS\u00c9 PIM \u2013 \u201cExperiencing an Arts and Science Project around Sedimentology\u201d<\/strong> took place in a setting that combined both scientific and artistic approaches, bringing together 12 ISblue students. This transdisciplinary workshop, led by Aur\u00e9lie Penaud (Geo-Ocean\/UBO)<\/a> and Isabelle Elizeon (HCTI\/TranSborder)<\/a>, blended the topic of sediments with artistic practices, exploring the dialogue between creation and research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objective:<\/strong>
To offer participants from various ISblue disciplines (engineering, chemistry, geosciences, management, physics, economics, law, biotechnology, etc.) an introduction to arts and science projects through small-group work on research issues related to sediments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workshop began with an introductory lecture by researcher Aur\u00e9lie Penaud<\/strong>, providing the scientific foundations of sedimentology. This was complemented by a session led by artist and dancer Caroline Denos<\/strong>, who invited students to experiment with artistic ways of expressing the complex dynamics of sediments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further contributions came from scientists Clara Valero<\/strong> (PhD\/UBO)<\/a> and Estelle Leroux<\/strong> (sedimentologist, Ifremer)<\/a>, who presented existing science mediation projects on sediment-related topics. Divided into teams of three, students spent the week developing prototypes of arts-and-science projects, embodying the dual role of researchers and creative collaborators inviting artists to engage with their subjects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Maison du Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de Lamb\u00e9zellec<\/a><\/strong>, a partner of the project, hosted two key moments: the introductory session and the final presentation. These sessions, held in a cultural venue, allowed students to fully immerse themselves in an artistic environment while benefiting from an inspiring creative space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CORS\u00c9 PIM<\/strong> helped students gain a deeper understanding of the methodology behind arts-and-science projects\u2014an entirely new approach for some thus breaking down the barriers that often separate artistic and scientific disciplines. It also helped them build confidence in their creative abilities and develop curiosity, imagination, teamwork, and adaptability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
