Experimenta Life Forms: International Triennial of Media Art
Various artists
4 February - 13 March 2023 Cathleen Edkins Gallery, Main Gallery & Margaret Scott Gallery
Experimenta Life Forms: International Triennial of Media Art features 26 contemporary Australian and International artists working across diverse artforms –including robotics, bio-art, screen-based works, installations, participatory and generative art.
The exhibition explores the changing notions of life in response to new scientific research and technological change.
While the focus is on biological life, there are also artworks that look to a future with sentient machines and the possibilities afforded by biotechnology research.
In unexpected, playful and challenging ways the exhibition connects us to the complexity and messiness of the life that envelops us.
