digital imaging: sporeprint

posted by ian grant on November 19, 2005 at 2:20 pm | in portfolio |

sporeprint: a visual exploration of urban fungi with microscopic photography, macro-photography, digital scans, 3d simulation, holography and x-ray imaging. currently, there is a mini exhibition of prints.

i seek to develop the project through collaboration in the style of a sci-art project - like those supported by the wellcome trust. i wish to explore links with kew gardens - particulary the british mycology society and biologists working at imperial, who have great experience at visualising really small things.

“Science is no longer locked up in laboratories; art is no longer restricted to galleries. In answer to a widespread frustration with traditional disciplinary confines, sciart aims to encourage creative and experimental collaborations between scientists and artists, which further enhance the public engagement with both science and art. ” source www.sciart.org/site/
