BIOplay: Bacteria Cultures
BIOplay: Bacteria Cultures is a component of a larger body of work called InsideOut: Laboratory Ecologies. This work is based on my experiences as a non-specialist working in a variety of scientific laboratories.
Essentially, I am interested in intervening in the 'laboratory ecology,' as I perceive it. The carefully balanced relationship between all organisms (and parts of organisms) inhabiting the lab - animal and human research subjects - cells, bacteria, enzymes, plants - the scientists themselves, and even unwanted contaminants. I wish to produce works that purposefully breaks with the convention of a 'closed' laboratory ecology - reconnecting the laboratory with external ecologies - revealing the 'bodies in biotechnology' to viewers and participants as interconnected orders of life.
