Laura Splan is a New York City based artist working at the intersections of Science, Technology, and Culture. Her research-based studio practice and interdisciplinary collaborations culminate in multimedia exhibitions and events. With an approach grounded in what she calls the “tactical tactile”, her work cultivates intuitive comprehension of the interconnectedness of cultural and biological systems. Recent projects have included immersive multisensory experiences, interactive installations, networked devices, participatory sculptures, and intimately scaled objects. These wide-ranging formats explore possibilities for understanding complexity through curiosity, wonder, and play. By reframing artifacts of the posthuman landscape with embodied encounters, Splan’s artworks reveal the “GUI/gooey” or liminal spaces mediating our relationship to nature and to our bodies. Her companion lectures and workshops unpack concepts and themes in her work—such as A.I., invisible labor, and genetic engineering—while providing insight into laboratory techniques, specialized software, and experimental methods used in her studio.
Laura Splan’s internationally recognized artworks and exhibitions have been presented at the Museum of Modern Art (NYC), Brooklyn Museum (NYC), Musea Brugge (Bruges), Museum of Arts & Design (NYC), Santa Mònica Art Centre (Barcelona), Nantes Museum of Arts (Nantes), SÍM (Reykjavík), Galerie FOFA (Montréal), and The Nobel Prize Museum at Liljevalchs (Stockholm). Her work is represented in the collections of the Spalter Digital Art Collection, Thoma Art Foundation, and Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. Commissions include projects for the Museum of the Moving Image, CDC Foundation, Vanderbilt Planetarium, Beall Center for Art+Technology Black Box Projects, and Bruges Triennial. Her artist lectures and talks have been presented by The National Arts Club, Frontiers of Science Institute, University of Connecticut Humanities Institute, and Coalesce Center for Biological Arts. Publications featuring her artwork include “The Routledge Companion to Biology in Art & Architecture,” “Radical Fiber: Threads Connecting Art and Science”, and "Life Eternal" published by The Nobel Prize Museum. Reviews and articles including her work have appeared in The New York Times, Nature, Wired, BOMB, Discover, and Frieze and she has been featured on Science Friday and Voice of America. Her research has been supported by the Simons Foundation, Jerome Foundation, Creative Australia, EY Metaverse Lab, and NEW INC at the New Museum. Her contributions to contemporary art have garnered awards including the Herringer Prize for Excellence in Art, Wave Farm’s Media Arts Assistance Fund for Artists Grant, and AS220’s National Endowment for the Arts Digital Arts Fellowship.

As an interdisciplinary collaborator, Splan’s research-based studio practice includes working with scientists, technicians, and engineers in both industry and academia. She was a member of the New Museum’s NEW INC “Creative Science” incubator imagining creative applications for science and technology. As a Bioartist-in-Residence at the uCity Science Center, she collaborated with scientists at Integral Molecular to interrogate interspecies entanglements and invisible labor in biotechnology. In “Sticky Settings”, a collaboration supported by the Simons Foundation, Splan explored computational translations of molecular systems with theoretical biophysicist Adam Lamson at the Flatiron Institute. As an Artist-in-Residence at NEW INC+EY Metaverse Lab, Splan collaborated with creative technologists to develop extended reality (XR/VR) artworks that reveal “virtual residues” persisting in the physical world while exploring possibilities for new materially liminal experiences. As a Black Box Projects Artist-in-Residence at Beall Center for Art + Technology, Splan is collaborating with the Park Lab at UC Irvine to explore environmental influences on gene expression for a project exploring epigenetics and ecologies.
As a speaker, Splan’s artist talks and lectures have been presented by the Frontiers of Science Institute, University of Connecticut Humanities Institute, International Symposium on Electronic Art, Concordia University, and the Anderson Endowed Lecture Series at Pennsylvania State University. She was the keynote speaker for the Digital Fabrication Symposium at the University of North Texas presenting her lecture “Bits & Pieces: Material Epistemologies & Digital Fabrication”. Her artist talk, “Syndemic Sublime,” was co-presented by the New Museum and Science Sandbox for NEW INC’s “Radical Evolution.” Splan has been a featured guest on MicrobeTV, hosted by Dr. Vincent Racaniello of Columbia University, SciArt Initiative’s LunchBreak series hosted by Julia Buntaine, and the Sound and Vision podcast hosted by artist Brian Alfred. She has participated in panel discussions and roundtables at the Brooklyn Museum, SciFoo at Google’s Headquarters in Silicon Valley, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Barcelona, and Onassis ONX.
As an educator, Splan has held academic appointments at Stanford University, teaching interdepartmental Art courses to Engineering, Computer Science, Biology, Math, as well as Art majors. As an artist-in-residence, she has taught academic seminars at the University of Maine and Illinois State University. Her public workshops have been hosted by the Fredrickson Family Innovation Lab, Tang Teaching Museum, and Coalesce Center for Biological Arts. Splan was a Digital Arts Fellow supported by the National Endowment for the Arts at AS220 Industries, where she taught creative coding and physical computing workshops. She has volunteered as a computer literacy instructor for underserved communities at Imani House in Brooklyn and as a facilitator and educator for the ACRE Residency Technology Studio. She has been a studio practice advisor for both independent artists and students at San Francisco Art Institute, California College of Art, Arts Council England, and NEW INC at the New Museum. Splan also provides studio practice advising to independent artists through the Plexus Projects Remote Artist Residency.
As a curator, Splan has produced new media art projects, including “Stimulus Transmit”, a moving image series that premiered on San Francisco public access television in 1997. During that time, she provided volunteer production support for COYOTE Street Wise, a public access television show on body politics hosted by sex worker activists Carol Queen and Margo St. James. She has been a visiting critic at numerous institutions, including The Crit Lab, University of Cincinnatti, and UNC Chapel Hill. She has served on selection committees and juries for the Biodesign Challenge and ACRE Residency. Her recent curatorial projects have included interdisciplinary programming and exhibitions for Creative Tech Week, as well as her experimental project space Plexus Projects where she curates GUI/GOOEY, an ongoing series of group exhibitions exploring digital representations of the natural world.
Laura Splan lives and works in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, the home of several superfund sites, in a building that has been a pharmaceutical factory and a knitting factory and is now an elaborate interactive installation for her cat.
My creative practice functions as experimental and investigative, narrative and performative, culturally situated and personal. I challenge delineations of Art, Design, and Craft to disrupt categories of knowledge production with interdisciplinary artworks and exhibitions. My projects and engagement examine cultural intersections of Science and Technology to reveal their shared inheritance and imagine their entangled future.

My projects and engagement examine cultural intersections of Science and Technology to reveal their shared inheritance and imagine their entangled future.
RECURSIVE SPELLS
Drawing upon history, theory, and philosophy, I unravel the sociopolitical matrices that enshroud Science by reframing the Technology with which it is done. My interrogations of digital and computational translations of the biological world unveil cultural constructions of Nature that are baked into scientific tools, communication, and protocols. With a perspective informed by feminist technoscience, I examine recursive relationships among tactility and detail in craft, interface and sensory experience in technology, and representations of the micro and macro in science. The techniques and processes embedded in my work offer ways in which the “recursive spell” of dominant paradigms can be disrupted and reoriented to imagine new possibilities for the future of our shared humanity.
LIMINAL BODIES
Using both traditional and experimental media, I reconsider representations of “bodies” to interrogate cultural constructions of “self “and “other” by creating liminal perceptions of each. Uncanny combinations of materials and processes invite investigation of detail, calling into question how things are made and what they are made of while eliciting subjective interpretation and speculation. I repurpose tools and artifacts of science to engage with them creatively and critically while searching for new possibilities. Past projects have reimagined uses for molecular visualization software, the fiber of laboratory animals, genetic sequences of viruses, human blood, medical devices, and scientific instrumentation.
POETIC CONFRONTATIONS
I use defamiliarization to democratize signifiers of “expertise” to draw disenfranchised individuals into conversations that affect the future of our shared humanity. From zoonotic diseases to transgenic vaccine development, understanding what it means to be “human” in the “natural world” is becoming increasingly complex. I reframe expansive biomedical issues with provocations of curiosity, wonder, and play to inspire critical thought about the role of science in our daily lives. I attempt to choreograph poetic confrontations with bodies and ecologies inside the gallery to foster deeper engagement with science outside the gallery with artworks that are topical yet timeless, accessible yet layered, by revealing beauty amongst chaos and resilience amidst crisis.
INTERCONNECTED SYSTEMS
My research-based practice often involves collaborations with scientists and residencies in laboratories to explore the interconnectedness of cultural and biological systems. Science often initially serves as a practical foundation grounded in sets of rules, principles, protocols, and even aesthetics, only to emerge as a protagonist within the narrative implications of the work. Conventions of beauty (symmetry, pattern, abstraction) and cues of comfort (textiles, handmade forms) frequently serve as a foil for more unsettling references to the fragility and complexity of our biomedical realities within technoscientific mechanisms.
