I presented at the Science Gallery Museum and Trinity College, Dublin—Interrogating Science and Art Through Neuroscience and Photography—as part of the Neurohumanities Public Lecture series. The lecture identifies the intersections of neuroscience, photography, and art to examine how visual perception transforms from sensory input to emotional and contextual meaning. It critiques neurasthenic principles by emphasizing the non-universality of beauty and the contextual and interpretive nature of art. Highlighting collaborations between artists and scientists, the presentation examines perceptual deficits, such as homonymous hemianopia and prosopagnosia, as a photographic-neuroscientific representation. The goal is to bridge scientific processes with artistic practices to develop innovative methods for expressing subjective experiences.
