Victoria Vesna: Inviting Meaningful Organic Art-Science Collaboration.

Abstract

We asked Victoria Vesna for an interview upon investigating her recent collaborative project, Noise Aquarium, through which, together with an interdisciplinary group, she brings awareness to a general audience of underwater noise pollution in relation to the plankton and their plight of coexistence with microplastics in the ocean. The discussion that ensued resonated as to fruitful artistic process, contribution to science, and the organic nature by which many of her most meaningful collaborations evolve to produce art.
