Despite the continuing lockdown, work continues in earnest on the Fermenting Futures project. We have just completed a video pre-visualisation of the exhibition that is being developed (expected to be finished by August 2021) and are able to share some images from the video here.
Fermenting Futures is a project by artists Alex May and Anna Dumitriu which traverses BioArt, synthetic biology, digital technologies, sculpture, craft and installation and explores the significance of yeast biotechnology from a cultural perspective and seeks to engage arts audiences in the history and future of this important but under-recognised field. The project is created in collaboration with the Institute of Microbiology and Microbial Biotechnology at BOKU – Universität für Bodenkultur in Vienna.
