Little do most people know, the artist is using chemistry to manipulate the material into something beautiful. As seen in pottery, from the molecular structure to its glazing, as well as the amorphous properties of glass and glassblowing, chemistry plays a vital role in the beauty of art, and it is important for artists to know the scientific processes behind their work.

I chose two artworks to analyze, Marble Statue of a Wounded Amazon and Hatshepsut Seated.

Visit any major museum of art, at any given time, and one could find an abundance of monumental names listed on tiny plaques hanging next to even more recognizable works of art. The excitement felt by any art enthusiast when walking into these buildings of time and creation, is undeniable and especially unique.
