Converging Science-Technology and Art
Modern sciences that complement Medicine and Biology, such as Nanotechnology, Bioinformatics, Stem Cell Technology, Transgenic Organisms, Neural Prosthetics and Artificial Intelligence applications, have enhanced human intelligence, offering new possibilities for the human body, documenting the potential immortality of our biological existence. The converging of science and technology has to serve humans, under the condition that humans serve always humanitarian ideas and principles.
While Science and Art are the most common human types of knowledge and emotional expressions, they have to be perpetually in a dynamic interdependence, interactive communication and exchange principles in order to be more understandable and representative of human existence and dimension….
Artistomic and BioArt Projects
Polina Simou, during the last 3 years attempts to present the achievements of modern Science in her Paintings. She cooperates with Scientists and Researchers from all over the world, in order to combine theories and experiments of Life Science with the Fine Arts. Her research works mainly concerns:
- Ethical and Philosophical enquiry on BioArt Creations
- Science in Artworks (Imaging Data, Brainwaves, Subcellular Processes Images
- Art Therapy
