In vitro Projections
This series of mixed media image projections respond to the sumptuous, colourful and complex microscopic imagery created in Professor Wray’s lab.
In this series of immersive images Charlie juxtaposes optical and refractive qualities, shadows and illuminations of colourised scientific glass, tools ,domestic materials and liquids to recreate, embody and enlarge the cell imagery she’s observed in the lab as her own cells have been transformed.
A selection of upcycled waste glass materials – gathered from factory production lines are combined with colourful viscous materials reminiscent of the liquids used in the lab to present playful, personal dimensions to what are conventionally anonymised, abstract scientific images.
This projection series is being created in response to imagery from Wray Lab, Dr Eric Hill’s lab (Aston Uni) and selected imagery from research labs across the UK and internationally
These images are presented as photographic still images, immersive installations and co-creative engagement activities.
