Pinecrest Academy high school students, Theresa Reed and John Paul McCabe, were two of five winners in the Global Bioethics Student Art Competition sponsored by the UNESCO Bioethics Chair at the United Nations.
Reed and McCabe submitted work that answered the call to create a work of art that inspired respect for all cultures and religions, with a focus on promoting a visual dialogue concerning life sciences and bioethics.
Reed's digital image Amissio Faciem (Loss of Face) and McCabe's mixed media piece, Are We Unique? were selected from hundreds of artists around the world taking on the challenge of touching hearts and bringing awareness to bioethics.
