Symbiotic Structures by Lisa Meinesz invites visitors to envisage a world where diverse lifeforms seamlessly integrate with their environments forming intricate symbiotic relationships. Through prints, animations and 3D-printed sculptures, each work serves as a window into a realm where architecture and biology converge to showcase the potential for habitats that not only sustain life, but celebrate its inherent diversity. Drawing inspiration from nature’s resilience and adaptability, the series celebrates the beauty of symbiosis: where organisms can mutually benefit from their interactions, creating a delicate equilibrium that sustains life.
Symbiotic Structures asks: for human habitats to be designed and retrofit symbiotically at scale, what necessary innovations and implementations of technology might help us get there?
Participants
Lisa Meinesz
Specialising in the creation of speculative life forms, Lisa Meinesz digitally sculpts intricate models and often brings them to life through sustainable 3D-printing. Her practice utilises conceptual form to not only prompt contemplation on the broader implications and significance of our aesthetic choices, but also to elicit an emotional response to the possibilities that exist beyond the familiar touchstones of life.
TERRAIN
TERRAIN is an initiative that creates playful physical and digital spaces to remind humans that they are embedded in a more-than-human world. They are an ecologically oriented bookshop, gallery and studio in Fitzroy (Ngár-go) on Wurundjeri Woiwurrung Country.
