| Abstrakt: | Representing the dynamic nature of biological processes is a challenge. This article describes a collaborative project in which the authors - a philosopher of biology, an artist and a cell biologist - explore how best to represent the entire process of cell division in one connected image. This involved a series of group Drawing Labs, one-to-one sessions, and discussions between the authors. The drawings generated during the collaboration were then reviewed by four experts in cell division. We propose that such an approach has value, both in communicating the dynamic nature of biological processes and in generating new insights and hypotheses that can be tested by artists and scientists.
