But somehow, it doesn\u2019t seem to happen. With art and science collaboration you also touch people emotionally. Art offers a new, fresh approach: by bringing art and science together, new perspectives can arise and transformative learning can be stimulated. Transformative learning means a lot more than simply learning facts and skills: it refers to changing how you think, feel and behave. It\u2019s all about profound changes in a person\u2019s perspectives, convictions and identity, with the result that they look at the world in a new way.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2>Involvement in sustainability issues<\/h2>\n<p>The research comprised various methods, such as historical analyses and qualitative interviews. It identified two collaboration approaches: 1. art as an instrument, and 2. synergistic art-science collaboration. The first approach offers new ways of conveying complex scientific information. The second form of collaboration encourages scientists, viewers and artists to look at a particular problem or event from different perspectives, and to reconsider their own points of view and responsibility. This can create a profound understanding of and involvement in sustainability issues. Katja Barendse: \u2018The report that has now been published is primarily theoretical. But we would very much like to continue working on the subject. As a follow-up we have in mind a concrete collaboration around the theme of art, science and water. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rijkswaterstaat.nl\/nieuws\/archief\/2023\/09\/kunstenaar-david-veldhoen-is-artist-in-residence-voor-strategische-verkenningen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rijkswaterstaat<\/a>, for example, is already working with an artist in residence. \u2018<\/p>\n<p><em>The exploratory Joint Research Programme (BTO) research project, \u2018Art\/Science collaborations for transformative change in the water sector\u2019, is a collaboration between Waterbedrijf Groningen and KWR.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Joint Research Programme (BTO) project on \u2018Art\/Science collaborations for transformative change in the water sector\u2019 explores how collaboration between art and science can transform the water sector.
