Mara G. Haseltine

UMara G. Haseltine ngumculi wamazwe ngamazwe, uvulindlela kwintsimi ye-SciArt, kunye ne-activist yendalo kunye nomfundisi. I-Haseltine ihlala isebenzisana nezazinzulu kunye neenjineli ukwenza umsebenzi ojongana nekhonkco phakathi kokuvela kwenkcubeko kunye nebhayoloji. Umsebenzi wakhe wenziwa kwilebhu yesitudiyo kunye nentsimi efaka imibuzo yesayensi ngemibongo. Njengegcisa eliselula wasebenzela umzobi waseFransi u-Nicki de saint Phalle ebeka iimosaic kwiGadi yakhe yeTarot yaseTuscany, e-Italiya kunye neMyuziyam yaseSmithsonian ngokubambisana neMyuziyam yeSizwe yaseTrinidad naseTobago ePort of Spain Trinidad.

Wayenguvulindlela ekuguqulelweni kwedatha yenzululwazi kunye ne-bioinformatics kwimizobo ene-dimensional-dimensional kwaye waziwa ngeenguqulelo zakhe ezingaphezulu zobomi obuncinci kunye ne-submicroscopic.

UHaseltine ngumseki “wesaluni eluhlaza” eyayisekelwe eWashington DC phakathi koo-2000, iqela elisebenzayo elizinikele kwizisombululo zokusingqongileyo ezidibanisa abenzi bomgaqo-nkqubo kunye namashishini. Nangona uninzi lwemisebenzi yakhe yendalo esingqongileyo iziqwengana zokwazisa zihlala zigxile kubudlelwane boluntu kwihlabathi elincinci eminye yemisebenzi yakhe isebenza njengezisombululo ezisebenzayo ekuthotyweni kwendalo. Ufunde iindlela ezizinzileyo zokubuyisela ulwalwa oluzinzileyo kakhulu kule minyaka ili-15 idlulileyo kwaye ube lilungu elinegalelo kwiGlobal Coral Reef Alliance ukusukela ngo-2006, njengommeli wabo we-NYC kwaye uye wabandakanyeka kwiphulo labo lezisombululo ezizinzileyo kunye ne-SIDS okanye iSmall Island States e. iZizwe eziManyeneyo.
