Art/Science Residency

Awarded funding for an Art & Science collaborative project at University of Manchester beginning in January 2015 working with Professor Rebecca Elliott and Dr Alexandra Morgan. Daksha will undertake residencies in brain and lung imaging and experiment with drawing methods that respond to concepts of noise and signal in biomedical imaging. The project explores how science and art construct knowledge, and the relationship between biomedical images and perceptions about the human body. The residency will culminate in an exhibition ‘Noisy Bodies’ at the John Ryland’s Library, Deansgate in October 2015. It will be supported by talks during Manchester Science Festival, and workshops in local schools combining arts and science components.
