PROJECT

Overview

In 1933, Alexander Fleming, who discovered penicillin in 1927, exhibited his ‘germ paintings’. It was the origin of “BioArt” that represents a crossover of art and the biological sciences with genes, proteins, cells and animals. Fleming’s early works were reductively judged in the terms of its aesthetic criteria, beauty. In this year, our project consists of two interrelated themes.


1. We try to create a new tool for “germ paintings” by integrating cell-to-cell communication with motility, color and other behavior such as fragrance.

2. Using this tool, we try to draw not only patterns but also paintings.


BioArt is still at the threshold of definition because of the lack of interdisciplinary work. Given such current condition, we will consider significance and prospect of BioArt through doing works and discussion with artist.


Object

Expression range of art is limited by media, each of which has several limitations about forms of expression, and if we get new media, the expression range is enhanced. The more wide the expression range become, the more wide possibilities of art works become. In reverse, by the same token, specific demands from artists to media will make advances in media and finally expand possibility of art. In our project, which theme is BioArt, medium is created by using parts and devices of genetical engineering and biotechnology, so we can develop science and engineering by creating art works through this project.



We named the results of our science activity "Colrcoli" and developed it in three categories "Color", "Signal" and "Motility". We used it as a tool for art and making a piece of work.
