ART4MED was 2-year artistic research residency and a collaboration between Makery (FR), Waag (NL), Laboratory for Aesthetics and Ecology (DK), Bioart Society (FI), and Kersnikova (SI).
ART4MED fosters encounters between art practices and biomedical health research. 5 partners from 5 EU countries probe the possibilities for expanding notions and methodologies of techno-medicine / medical sciences / health-related sciences, in order to democratize these fields and open them up to creative experimentation.
Emilia Tikka, together with her collaborators Oula A Valkeapää and Leena Valkeapää, were artists in residence at Bioart Society (FI) during 2020 - 2022. The project resulted an artwork installation called MNEMONIA.
