Call for Entry | The Biological Canvas

Call for Entry | The Biological Canvas
VASA Online Gallery
Today's artist uses a dramatically advanced set of media and technologies to integrate into the process of their artwork (X-Ray, MRI, Ultrasound, Plastic Surgery, Embodiment, DNA, Information Technology, etc.) .  A new movement is in full-swing that recapitulates the Renaissance world where artist and scientist existed in an overlapping practice.
The Biological Canvas seeks artists who are working with concepts of body as canvas.  Biotechnology, Genetic Therapies, Technological Embodiment, and Advanced Surgical Processes  have opened the doors for artists to begin using their body as the ultimate design palette.  
How will emerging technologies revise the human experience?
How will integrations into the body begin to reform vision and culture?
How can new technologies be used to advance the human body?
What are the pros/cons to transitions away from a purely Darwinian dictated evolution?
What is possible with these new findings?
