While Dr. Regina Valluzzi may be known for her scientific work in Nanotechnology and Biophysics, she has also pursued her development as an artist in tandem with her technical achievements. In addition to some early lessons and classes taken at the Museum School of the Museum of Fine Arts (through an extremely selective MIT exchange program), Dr. Valluzzi has developed her knowledge and skill as an artist through reading, collaborations, and self-teaching. Paint is comprised of Polymers, and the behavior of polymers has been Dr. Valluzzi’s major field of study for over two decades. Her paintings are very much about the properties of paint and manipulation of those properties.
