Art Meets Science
In 2014 we worked with costume designer Katie May Boyd who produced two pieces based on the Plasmodium (malaria) parasite. One costume represented infection (and eventual rupture) of a host liver cell (pictured here), while the other is based on the mature, sexually reproducing stage of the Plasmodium lifecycle. A short film was made to display these costumes.
We have also worked with a local glass artist to produce a piece based on research into cerebral malaria. This collaboration between Dr Chris Moxon and artist Helen Davy was exhibited at a space at the St Enoch's Centre in Glasgow in 2019.
