Have you ever heard about bioart? Did you know that microbial biofilms and fungal cultures on Petri dishes can become pieces of art? All this and much more you can discover in my interview with Uppsala based artist Amanda Selinder.

In her work Amanda fuses her background in fine art and her passion for textiles and natural pigments with her curiosity for biological processes. The latest outcome were fascinating pieces of artwork that give a glimpse into the life and biology of endophytic fungi isolated from leaves.

In this podcast interview we talked about - How her interest for fine art emerged - How she discovered bioart and what can be done with it - Why she decided to go back to university to study biology - How she dyes silk with natural pigments from fungi - How this arts project has developed into a scientific study
