About

Interested in both physics and art, Aedan aims to combine both fields together. Specifically, he works towards promoting diversity in the sciences. He has focused much of his artwork on celebrating women and under-represented scientists, inventors, engineers, and mathematicians. He works in two-dimensions, using media ranging from ink, paint, digital, chalk, or ketchup. 

Working from Madison, Wisconsin, Aedan recently finished his doctorate degree in physics, and now works as a product development scientist at Mad City Labs. He still finds time to make art outside the laboratory, and enjoys working within the community to share art and science. He has been able to participate in many opportunities around the midwest, like being a Kohler Fellow through the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, showing art in local art galleries in the Fox River Valley and Beloit, and exhibited three times in ArtPrize, held in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
