Gina Czarnecki - Humancraft
Gina Czarnecki is a British artist whose practice intersects multiple genres and platforms. Developed in collaboration with biotechnologists, computer programmers, dancers and sound artists, her recent works confront issues surrounding the convergence of biology and technology and the possible corruption of the human genetic mix.
Czarnecki uses time-based and digital media, making single-screen, photographic and installation works. Through sampling, generating and re-processing image and sound, she creates contemplative spaces with strong visual aesthetics. Her work focuses on the human, the physical, biological and psychological.
Her work has been exhibited internationally including ISEA 1998 in Liverpool and Ars Electronica ‘life sciences’ in Linz, Austria in1999. She won a prestigious Creative Scotland Award in 2002 for work on her interactive installation Silvers Alter, which was exhibited at the Natural History Museum, London in summer 2003. Other recent exhibitions include: Infected (premiere of installation version) at Peterborough Art Gallery Apr-Jun 2003, and Versifier, Installation in Remembrance at ACMI Melbourne, Australia, Mar-Oct 2003.
