A Stand of Artists: The Art and Science of Collective Animal Groups
Presented by The Guild of Natural Science Illustrators (GNSI) Finger Lakes Chapter!
Behind each collective noun of an animal group there is a historical lexicon rich in whimsical descriptors. In this exhibit, our “stand of artists” present artistically diverse images of interesting animal groups and offer back stories behind their collective nouns. The artists also share scientific information about their subject and may even wax poetic about why the animal resonates with them.
