SPOILED PROPAGANDA: Artist Talks & Panel Discussion

What happens when art, design, science, technology and ecology begin to contaminate one another?

Join us for an evening of artist talks and open discussion with the practitioners behind SPOILED PROPAGANDA: grafting bio-futurism.

Bringing together artists, biodesigners, researchers and makers working across disciplines, the evening offers a glimpse into the ideas, experiments and processes behind the exhibition.

From living materials and microbial collaborations to digitally fabricated habitats and regenerative design, we'll explore what it means to create with nature rather than simply designing for it.

Through short artist presentations followed by a collective panel discussion and audience Q&A, we'll consider the possibilities, contradictions and challenges of biodesign. Can material experimentation shift our relationship with the natural world? What happens when scientific knowledge meets artistic intuition? And how might we move beyond sustainability as a buzzword towards more imaginative, entangled ways of living?

An invitation to question the futures we're being sold, encounter new perspectives and join the conversation about what comes next.

No specialist knowledge required. Curiosity encouraged.
