Art as Research

What is art as research? How does making become a method of inquiry for exploring questions in science, technology, culture, and reality? Ani Liu talks about her practice, with works in media ranging from microbiology, artificial intelligence and robotics. Through the work, she explores themes in motherhood, identity, labor and the body in a technologically mediated world.
