Chemists as Artists –Mrs. Sackett’s Alchemy

April 21, 2015 by szachik@pvs.org Leave a Comment

The Chemistry class delved into how science and art are deeply intertwined. After the sophomore chemists learned about the chemistry involved in creating various forms of art, they chose a work of art that represented them, described why they chose this art work, and explained the chemistry behind how the piece of art was created. Their projects were displayed in the Upper School lobby.

Said Mrs. Sackett, “I loved reading them!”

She shared with us the following projects:
