This exhibition explores complex collaborations between human artists and other life forms towards the production of cultural expressions that explore the ecological, economic, technological, and spiritual relations possible between species in a new field called bioart. 

The goal of this workshop is for participants to cultivate samples of yeast from their local environment – to grow these samples over a few days at home – allowing participants to see for themselves organisms that are usually not visible to the naked eye.  This lab serves to remind us that our civic environment is a complex ecology teeming with life in many forms.

An Art/Science Cabaret hosted by INCUBATOR lab, EPICentre and the School of Creative Arts at the University of Windsor.

INCUBATOR Lab invites students of the School of Creative Arts to pop by the lab for lunch, a free haircut by staff from Parlor Salon, and bioart workshop using hair as an artistic medium.  

INCUBATOR Lab welcomes the Toronto Technoscience Salon to Windsor for a round table discussion, and a one-day workshop on bioart in post-industrial ecologies.  Drawing participants from multiple universities as well as artistic and technical communities, the Toronto Technoscience Salon prompts playful and experimental engagements with the politics and practices of technoscience. 

Science, Art and Ecology intersect in the Ontario Science Centre’s !dea Gallery from October 5, 2013 to February 2, 2014 during an innovative exhibition showcasing the work of thirteen Bioart students from the University of Windsor’s Incubator Lab.  Founded by Dr. Jennifer Willet in 2009, Incubator is a hybrid laboratory where students research and explore ideas and practices in the leading-edge field of bioart. An art installation in its own right, the exhibition will form a panoramic view of the laboratory as the background for the art works of the students.
