Of Blooded Things

Of Blooded Things, a solo exhibition of oil paintings, features as one of more than 150 exhibits within Imperial Festival. The public are invited to go behind-the-scenes and explore the latest research and innovations from Imperial College London through interactive demonstrations, workshops and live experiments. Creativity and culture will also be at the forefront with vibrant live musical and dance performances, a theatrical performance and exhibition exploring the boundaries between medicine and the arts.

This exhibition of oil paintings forms an exciting component to the Festival where world-leading research at Imperial College London is brought into the public arena. The sciences of virology and genomics capture Morris’ imagination in multifarious ways and have become a medium through which decisions are made in her painting. Meet Suzi Morris in conversation with immunologists Beak-San CHOI Christopher Chiu and Jessica Strid on Saturday 2.00 – 4.00 pm and Celia Johansson and Beak-San CHOI on Sunday 2.00 – 4.00 pm Register for free tickets at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/imperial-festival-2018-tickets-37091922940
