| This online gallery expands beyond our February, 2007 offline exhibition that took place at outworks Gallery in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. It includes more artists working in a variety of mediums. The purpose of this project is to spark public dialogue and debate about genetic and genomic science. All of the artists associated with this effort have a thorough understanding of the science they explore. However, many of the concepts they present are frequently overlooked by conventional scientific journals. The initial call was put out to emerging or established artists working in any medium and as a result, the shows feature original music derived from the molecular frequencies of DNA, sculptures of hybrid animals, prints that contain the combined genetic material of hundreds of international participants, and much more. We invite you to explore this gallery and read the descriptions that each artist has provided about their ongoing body of work.. |
| Curators Holly Longstaff and Jordan Miller would like to thank the gracious artists who agreed to share their work on this gallery. They would also like to thank Genome British Columbia for all their generous support. For information on how to order catalogues, please visit our comments page. |
