Assoc. Prof. Dalila Honorato, Director of the InArts Lab at the Department of Audio and Visual Arts of the Ionian University, participates as a guest-speaker at the Bio Art Forum taking place in Novi Sad, Serbia, on May 16-18, 2024, as part of the project Bio Awaking. The specific objectives of the project include developing a network of bio artists across Europe, strengthening the capacities of European artists in utilizing biomaterials, and creating bio art installations using environmental samples. Additionally, the project will focus on involving decision-makers in all phases of the process, fostering an audience for bio art that supports environmental conservation, and nurturing cultural, artistic, and educational collaboration in addressing environmental challenges in Europe and the Balkans.
Dalila Honorato (Greece) together with Olga Majcen Linn (Croatia) and Stevan Kojić (Serbia) participate in the inspirational panel session "Keeping Art Alive" moderated by Petar Laušević (Serbia). This session tackles the unique challenges of curating bio art – keeping it alive while ensuring its message endures. Artists, researchers, and curators dissect the challenges of keeping these living artworks vibrant and sharing their perspectives on creating conditions for them to thrive. Join the discussion and discover how institutions can nurture collaboration, education, and the future of bio art, ensuring accessibility for future audiences.
