This is an initial concept sketch of the mini ecosystem which will contain the bioreactor, in which the tissue taken from my thigh will be grown into sculptural form.
The top vessel is the bioreactor. the second tank will be a aquarium, and the bottom one a plant tank. All constructed from glass.

My current Residency at SymbioticA (www.symbiotica.uwa.edu.au) involves designing the bioreactor, in collaboration with Matt Johnson an industrial design student from the RCA in London, and Oron Catts as part of The SymbioticA Research Group.
While here at symbi i'm also working on a project involving thetissue cuturing of excess surgical tissue from cosmetic surgery patients, and doing HIV/Lentivirus research following from Go Forth an Multiply, mentioned below.
