Workshop in collaboration with dr Jakub Piątkowski in frame of research project: MEDIATED ENVIRONMENTS

Jazdów, Warsaw 2017, in frame of Festiwal Myśli Abstrakcyjnej (Festival of Abstract Think)

The workshop was done in cooperation with a geneticist Jakub Piątkowski, PhD. The main goal was to show participants the way of conducting bio art projects. We made a classical academic experiment: a biosynthetic pathway of eye dye, working with mutants of fly Drosophila melanogaster. The challenge was to find a different context of such activity and depict it in artistic way.

male prison in Rawicz 2015

surveys filled by prisoners, sentences for ending: The worst thing which I can imagine is… The best thing that I can imagine is… I have fear for... Thinking about something beautiful I see... Thinking about something ugly I see… I would never touch... I would never taste… Really nice is for me... The pain is... I can't imagine life without... Nature is for me... Culture is for me...

Zbąszyń 2016

surveys filled by audience, questions: What do you see? What do you think seeing it? Can you imagine the feelings of creatures closed in the cage? Is it piece of art? Do you want to come in? Whad did you feel being inside?
