Description
Vital Forms: Biological Art, Architecture and the Dependencies of Life by Jennifer Johung explores how the intersection of biotech, art, and architecture are transforming our world. As living matter becomes increasingly intertwined with art and architecture, the life sciences are driving a major cultural shift. This book examines cutting-edge developments in biotechnological research, including tissue-engineering, stem cell science, regenerative medicine, and more. By pairing contemporary biological inquiry with artists who are revolutionizing it, Johung reveals how art and architecture are reimagining life on cellular and subcellular levels. Through numerous case studies, she maps the evolving dependencies between objects, bodies, and environments. Johung's insightful analysis brings biological art and architecture into critical dialogue, offering powerful observations about the unfolding dependencies that are becoming vital to life in our age of biotechnological manipulations.
