From the 20th century, the division between sciences and art became more pronounced, as brilliantly highlighted by Charles Percy Snow. The two realms – as he called them – drifted apart due to the apparent differences in their languages, creating significant limitations for societal progress. Today, Snow’s concerns remain relevant and are of great interest to both artistic and scientific communities. Moreover, science has become fragmented into various branches. In response to this division, many art movements have attempted to bridge the gap by focusing on specific scientific fields (e.g., physics and biology). However, this has left gaps in exploring the connection between art and other scientific disciplines. Here, we present Chem-Art, a developing artistic movement that uses methods – either heuristic or strictly scientific – to explore the relationship between art and chemistry. Thanks to initiatives such as SAGacia (Smart), which foster dialogue between these two disciplines in mutually meaningful ways, we aim to reduce this division
