  • Science/Art Collaborations by Professor Helen Storey
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: UNIVERSITY OF THE ARTS LONDON Unit of Assessment: 34 Title of case study: Science/Art collaborations by Professor Helen Storey 1. Summary of the impact This case study focuses on three Science/Art collaborations Primitive Streak, Wonderland and Catalytic Clothing (CatClo) undertaken since 1997 by Professor Helen Storey. Storey’s work is genuinely collaborative, spanning arts, sciences and new technology fields, and produces projects which illuminate aspects of science and well-being in ways that engage with the public, communicate complicated concepts, and demonstrate the potential of science in an innovative and accessible manner. The projects have reached huge audiences and have made a significant contribution to raising public awareness of science and issues faced by society. 2. Underpinning research Professor Helen Storey began working within University of the Arts London (UAL) in 1997 on the development of Primitive Streak, shortly followed by her appointment as a Visiting Professor (1998) and then employment as a Research Fellow (2000). Since 2009 Storey has been Professor of Fashion and Science at UAL. Through innovative collaborative partnerships, Storey has developed a design language and methodology that successfully captures and evokes scientific process. Primitive Streak (1997) was one of the first six grant recipients in the Wellcome Trust's Sciart scheme, and was produced by Storey in collaboration with her sister Professor Kate Storey (a developmental biologist), with staff and students at UAL. It utilised design and hybrid materials to create 27 pieces of textiles and dress, which elucidated eleven key events in human embryonic development during the first 1000 hours of human life, supported by explanations of the scientific observations that inspired each piece.

Colorful maxidresses, hip-hugging fl ared trousers, patchworks, fl oral and geometric prints, transparency, organza, lots of suede — often embellished — and fringe trims were some of the main trends this season. The tinge of retro and the continued development of up-and-coming designers left retailers more upbeat about the Milan collections than they have been in several seasons.
