Maria Salome Sklodowska
​
An educational poster of Polish/French scientist and twice Noble laureate Marie Curie.
​
Her portrait is juxtaposed with the shape of her then stateless homeland of Poland.
The texture represents the tons of ore processed in order to extract the new elements.
A timeline of her achievements, discoveries and personal life highlights her distinct
political stance and Polish identity as well as her tremendous contributions to science.
​
The atomic structures of the 2 elements she discovered are visible in the dark, a homage to Curie's coining of the term "radioactivity".
