The Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History has merged science, conservation and art in the exhibition “Hyperbolic Crochet Coral Reef.” Shocked by the accelerating demise of coral across the globe, creators and curators Margaret and Christine Wertheim, of the Institute for Figuring, were inspired to tell the story of coral reefs through crochet. Participants from around the world helped create the “The Toxic Reef,” which is on display as part of the exhibition through April 24.
