Exhibition
Our Biotech Future(s)
June 23 - July 1, 2016
Location:
SVA Fine Arts Building
Opening reception: Thrusday June 23, 2016, 6-9pm

Our Biotech Future(s) borrows its name from the title of physicist Freeman Dyson’s seminal 2007 essay ”Our Biotech Future.” Rather than a singular “future,” however, the projects suggest the possibility for a multiplicity of “futures,” some of which align with each other, while others clash.
The nine visions chosen from dozens developed throughout the year by university students working under the guidance of art and design professors, scientists and subject-matter experts explore the many possible ways biotechnology could affect our environment and our lives.
