PS 245K - Classroom and Production

www.thrivecollective.org/portfolio/creators/

The “Creators” mural at PS 245 in Flatbush explores the creative convergence of artists and scientists over time with the help of a time machine. It is one of two mural projects funded by NYC Council Member Matthieu Eugene in spring 2019. As a school, PS 245 has embraced a STEAM educational focus (Science Technology Engineering Arts Math), so we leveraged a grant from the Cultural Immigrants Initiative to explore the creativity of scientists, artists, and innovators from around the globe. Some highlights:

 

Madam Marie Curie discovering Radium

A flying machine according to Da Vinci’s sketchbook

Mona Lisa portrayed in a child-like style

Neil Degrasse Tyson

Benjamin Franklin collaborating with a Mayan artist

The Wright’s brothers’ first flyer

The first computer

Kathrine Coleman Goble Johnson, the African-American woman NASA mathematician

Einstein collaborating with Frida Khalo

Stephen Hawking and so much more
