Branching Morphogenesis
Jenny E. Sabin
Jenny Sabin observes the structures of cells, their fibrous interconnective tissue and the forces at work among them. These observations inspired her large-scale, walk-through sculpture consisting of 75,000 cable ties. She created it in collaboration with cell biologist Dr. Peter Lloyd Jones. Sabin is both an artist and a researcher. She combines the fascination of science with the beauty of an object, and works on potential architectural applications of biological processes. Bionics analyses nature’s inventions and implements them in the form of innovative technologies. Suction cups, Velcro, modern swimsuits, revolutionary designs for airplane wings, and self-cleaning surfaces—they’re all modeled on what nature has brought forth.
