Amy Karle is a bioartist who uses the mind-body, science and technology to create art. Karle’s artwork taps our concepts of what it means to be human and in this body, expressing internal, ephemeral experiences in visual forms. Working across a variety of platforms she engages questions about what it means to be human by creating projects on, around, or about the body; it is the subject and the medium. She connects physiology and consciousness with science and technology to create representations of our internal states so that we may study the mind and body and even learn to reprogram it. Her work has established a new discipline in the art world.
