About this project:
Since 2015, Dr. Anya Goldina has offered students in Biology 201 and 202: Human Anatomy and Physiology the unique opportunity to earn extra credit by creating artwork centered around systems and organs discussed in the class. Hundreds of pieces of art later, her students have demonstrated the continual presence of anatomy in everyday life through their projects. The artwork, displayed in Fall of 2019 in the Lyet Gallery of Elizabethtown College, allows students and community members to learn about anatomy in a hands-on capacity. Student researchers Rebecca Kruse and Aubrey Mitchell created this website to digitally showcase the artwork, provide educational resources for students and educators, and inspire learning in others. This project lays the foundation for continuous digitization of future art projects, and will serve as an important resource for science teachers and the community.
I really enjoyed doing this project because it allowed me to be creative within a scientific course!

Hear from the artists!
This physical interaction helped me focus on this concept and truly absorb it in a way not accessible with a textbook.

Because of these projects, I could apply the knowledge I learned in class while putting the concepts into my own artistic perspective!
