Lauren EGAN

Exploring the possibilities of expanded painting using projection mapping and sculpture to create a living canvas. The project is a meeting point of symbolic culture of bacteria and yeast and the digital.

Using the Lab as a period for extensive studio research allowed me to engage with both my materials and processes. Scaling things back in order to both respect and work with the Scoby allowed for greater expression of low-fi processes. 

Our cohort meetings were a vital aspect of the research process, this allowed me to discover a new factor within my work, time.

The Lab gave me the opportunity to explore new technologies such as projection mapping and make connections with those who use it regularly in their work.
