Breaking boundaries and fusing scientific brilliance with creative artistry, is at the heart of the HMRI Art Series Exhibition which is being held this November.

Join us to celebrate the coming together of art and science.

Since its launch in 2005, the HMRI Art Series has become an annual tradition, thanks to the support of Adjunct Professor Chris and Shirley Piggott and the incredible generosity of local artists.

The HMRI Art Series is an annual collaboration between HMRI’s Researcher of the Year and a local artist who combines their research with artistic expression. This year, we are proud to feature Tyler Dan as our Artist in Residence, whose work is inspired by Professor Zsolt Balogh and his groundbreaking research in traumatology.

Combined with Tyler’s incredible representation of Zsolt’s work - titled ‘The Tyranny of Sensitivity’, the HMRI Art Series Exhibition will feature the works of more than 50 highly acclaimed local artists. at Ravella on Saturday 2^nd and Sunday 3^rd November.

Join us on Sunday 3rd November at Ravella, Newcastle for the culminating event of the HMRI Art Series Exhibition - The Long Lunch
