drawn in light

A commission for the Wellcome Trust to creatively document artist Jo Berry's project 'Hijacking Natural Systems'.

This arts and science project, was devised in collaboration with Dr Nick Holliday and Tim Self from the School of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Nottingham and involved Jo working as a research scientist at the university a day a week for six months, during which time she produced a body of work for exhibition.

My documentation resulted in a film, still imagery and a self published book all of which are presented here.

'Hijacking Natural Systems' was exhibited at Derby Museum and Art Gallery, from July 23rd - October 30th 2011 and at the Djagnogly Art Gallery, Nottingham, from February 25th - April 5th 2012.
