New Media Artist Research

I am particularly interested in biology and artwork that focuses on the organic qualities and micro-systems of the body.  I had a field day looking at this website to find these artists:

Susan Derges

A quote from her website from an article about her work sums up the connection between the arts & sciences:  ”Both the artist and the scientist are prompted by the same creative urge to find a perceptible image of the hidden forces in nature of which they both are aware.”-Naum Gabo

Naan Rijks

Gary Schneider

I also really like this artist, who reminds me of Amanda: Laura Splan
