Hello, I am Sharon DeMattia

I AM AN ARTIST and SCIENTIST 

I am a systems thinker, strategic optimist, and creative concepts designer who creates interactive spaces that explore the interconnected relationships between planet and people. 

I am a dragon rider, I am an invitation to the curious, and a curator of creative genius.  

I received my MS from the University of Colorado, Boulder in Kinesiology and Applied Physiology and worked within the Integrative Vascular Biology Lab doing invasive Human subjects research.  As my understanding of the integrity of query, methodology, and measurement expanded, so too did my understanding of the fragility and limitations of adhering solely to linear processes and prediction models. 

When we only measure, we tend to miss the meaning; thus causing ecosystems to collapse into themselves from lack of relational cohesion. The art within science is found in the relationships between complex systems and the blurred edges of what is purely evidence based.
