Sienna Cenere is a self-taught artist with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. Her distinctive style,
known as Numberism, involves meticulously hand-writing thousands of tiny numbers and
equations to create meditative and educational artworks. Each piece is composed of scientific
data relevant to the subject’s form and function, bridging the gap between art, science, and
public outreach.

Sienna has presented her work in multidisciplinary lectures across the Pacific Northwest and
the UK, in collaboration with organizations such as NW Noggin, the Washington State
Emergency Nurse Association, and Physiology News Magazine. She has exhibited at local
galleries including Ford, Afru, Blind Insect, and Gallery 114 among others, and maintains an art
studio in North Portland where she produces original work and fine art reproductions.

She is currently preparing to embark on a two year SciArt collaboration with research scientist
Dr. Amanda Grunwald, which will take her from doing field work in the Andean rainforest, to
historical analysis and specimen illustration at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago.
The project will culminate in a fine art exhibition and lecture series at the Climate Action
Museum in Chicago. This exhibit will be presented to scientists, students, and the general public
to engage and educate a broad audience about how climate change affects vulnerable species.
