Description
Crossing Over is an exhibition of contemporary art at the Royal Institution of Great Britain that addresses the highly topical subject of genetic manipulation and bioengineering. Bringing together art, design and science, the artworks by thirteen artists and designers investigate the metaphors, potentialities and anxieties of this much debated area.
Supported by the Wellcome Trust, the Arts Council England and Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, Crossing Over engages with the transfer of art, design and biotechnologies, addressing questions on the shifting boundaries between biological and biotechnological, human and non-human, subject and object.
