invisible biology, aggregated with natural human manipulations

Heidy and Andreas work incessantly to discover new aesthetic possibilities of multiple natural and artificial worlds. The ingenious bio-hackers work in a tiny lab, where water lentils grow in giant aquariums and mushrooms hang on the walls. Unveiling unseen networks which comprise our unknown and complex world, their work brings one to realize our human finitude. 

Heidy Baggenstos and Andreas Rudolf both achieved a Master in Fine Arts at the Zürich University of Arts (ZHdK) in 2015, and they have been working together since 2002. Their works have been exhibited throughout Switzerland in various galleries, off spaces and public projects. Pro Helvetia awarded the duo with several scholarships and awards and they were invited to the international biennial Manifesta 11 curated by Christian Jankovsky.
