This session will address themes of bio and nano art and how artists play an important role in making the invisible visible.
Human nature tends to lose sight from within whilst the natural world has always been full of hints to inspire new directions and new understandings. Science offers a great deal of knowledge but yet how much is assessable to the daily life? Can science allow art to help penetrate further into the heart of knowledge and help to bring new meaning of this knowledge into the greater world? Or is it only for the experts to decide what to do with this knowledge? What is the new role of art in the post-covid world?
