Signs of Life
Published on the 30 Sep 2014
UNSW Galleries presents Signs of Life, a program of exhibitions, live laboratories and projects exploring the relationship between creative expression and specialised scientific fields.
Body Image
6 September – 8 November
Body Image reveals new, compelling, arts-led modes of visualising complex scientific and biomedical data. Bringing together art and medical science, the exhibition takes viewers on enthralling visual journeys inside the human body, discovering aspects of blood flow, organ and cellular behaviour.
Amnesia Lab
20 September – 8 November
Amnesia Lab is an ongoing collaborative research project involving artists, writers and neurosychologists from the UK and Australia. For Signs of Life, the Amnesia Lab looks into the human brain and the processes of memory.

20 September – 11 October

Quo Vadis: the last drawing show attempts to suggest some answers to this question.
