petri - dish: artwork


 



One of the concepts that we came up with was to use petri-dishes to create all the imagery to be used within the design work. Using bacteria/what-ever-we-can to create really interesting colours, shapes and patterns that we can photograph at really high quality and utilize the images for the design work.

One problem we face is neither of me and Matt has a brilliant understanding of biology therefore lots of experimentation with petri-dishes and different materials will need to be carried out to find out how we can produce these colourful interesting patterns.

These designs have been created by Adam Barak, he has created the basic skeleton of the hebrew letters using bacteria from his mouth on petri-dishes. Really interesting concept however the over all outcome isnt too interesting, the dishes are not really too great to look at whereas he had potential to produce some really nice imagery using these dishes.
