Enlighten Immunology
This project included the production of a variety of work, including sculptures, Me and You, a large scale video installation, The Gatekeeper, and a series of 'lymph system' watercolours made in 2017.
Work was made with advice from ten immune based science labs across Europe, constituting the Enlight-Ten research project which tries to understand our immune system better by looking at the functioning of T cells, specific white blood cells, by cross-disciplinary research between T cell immunology and big data analysis.
The work was included in the exhibition Art Enlightening Immunology at the Waag, Amsterdam, in 2018, in the Waag's Theatrum Anatomicum, which included further artworks by the artists Marta de Menezes and Herwig Turk and the scientist Luis Graca.
