#ScienceUpFirst, Art Alongside: Empathy

Putting yourself in someone else’s shoes is one of the hardest things we can do. Good science communicators think about a topic from their audience’s perspective. Once we put ourselves in that frame of mind, real conversations become much easier.

Today’s artwork is brought to you by the uber-talented Ameesha Lee from Ontario! ⭐ ️

This illustration was inspired by the science of brain cells called mirror neurons. These create an echo of another person’s emotions in our own minds. Rad!

Ameesha Lee is an art director & illustrator who has worked in the broadcast & design industry for over 15 years. Using hand drawn and digital techniques, she loves collaborating with other inspiring creatives to produce beautiful and meaningful work, both static and in motion.
