The natural world has evolved over billions of years by developing extraordinary relationships between different species and populations. These symbiotic relationships, both cooperative and destructive, demonstrate the importance of long-term partnerships for a healthy ecosystem. From mysterious microscopic organisms to amazing plant life, insects, and large mammals including humans, many species' survival is interdependent on one another. 

Featuring works by members of the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators - Finger Lakes Chapter, the exhibition brings art and science together to help us understand the importance of interconnectivity and how better-informed decisions will help address the challenges of biodiversity loss, food insecurity and environmental conservation.

In the Mann Gallery on the second floor of Mann Library through February 11, 2024. This exhibit is free and open to all during the open hours of the library: https://mann.library.cornell.edu/full-hours
