I have helped bioartist and educator Xandra Van der Eijk initiate the first BioArt MA program in The Netherlands called Ecology Futures and held at Avans University of Applied Sciences in Den Bosch. I created and led two six-month courses.
Eco-Materials Culture, on biomaterials and bioart making, included a visit to Micropia and exhibitions at Dutch Design Week, a lecture by Špela Petrič, aid by Wasabi Ng, and a workshop by my former student Sebastian Guzman Olmos. Students did plenty of research, writing, curating and experimentation. Growing Culture was online during the lockdowns, and students learnt how to grow, care and process kombucha for artistic purposes.
