Abstract

This article explores the relationship between art and entomology, showcasing the historical collaboration between the two fields. By combining art and science, researchers and educators can create engaging experiences that enhance understanding and appreciation of insects and science. The article provides examples of art-science collaborations, such as using music and immersive installations to disseminate research findings. Art that incorporates scientific knowledge can increase awareness of conservation efforts and foster a deeper connection with nature. The article suggests various activities for integrating art and entomology, emphasizing the importance of sustained support and funding for interdisciplinary initiatives. It encourages readers to explore the creative aspects of the scientific process and incorporate art-science integration in their own research, art, and education. [Extracted from the article]
