Bird Tableau

This sculpture explores themes of memory, homesickness, lost potential, and the persistence of material objects.​

Martian Landscapes
By Izzy Inskip & Crispin Jordan

A series of five 3D printed pieces each depicting an imagined lichen. Lichens have been found able to withstand the vacuum of space and may be able to form with radiotrophic fungi that “feed” off radiation. This makes them the ideal starting point for imagining what life on Mars’ surface could look like!

Lunar Lungs
By Gintare Bagacionkaite, Tiago Marcos & Adam Landos

​Just scan your fingerprint, and 72 hours and a surgery later enjoy new lungs that are compatible with the atmosphere of Mars. Away with the suits and helmets! This newest generation printer uses your DNA to create personalized lungs to provide you with a better quality of life here on Mars

Mars Specimens A & B – parents with offspring
By Dani Rothmann

Creatures made from blown glass and forged metal, the steel legs engage with the presence of Iron on the surface of Mars, showing the creatures absorbing material from their surroundings. The piece considers ancient climate on Mars. 

Nostalgia Energiser
By Jenny Pope & XinRan Liu

​This piece is about the sense of homesickness that I imagine humans would have arriving on Mars and their memories of uniquely earthly activities like visiting the seaside, familiar objects and playing. It is a reminiscence tool for the displaced, to while away time in a wholly unfamiliar landscape. 

The Relativities of Colour
By Iris Tai Lin & David Price

The collection on display is part of an investigation into how data collected from colour relativity can be further harnessed as a tool for humans in the perception and thus the navigation of an unfamiliar environment. Where art supplies are limited and scientific data becomes the primary tool on an extra-terrestrial planet, the data from colour relativity can also take shape as an art form.

Life on Mars with David
By Janet Philp & Neil Kempsell

​Anatomical changes might occur after many years of living on Mars. It is depicted on the form of Michelangelo’s David that has been the idealised depiction of the human form since 1504 and has been used by other artists to map human development. 

Passing Place
By Justine Watt & Victoria McCulloch

​When we reach Mars we will need to communicate. This is my idea of a meeting point, the red telephone box of the future, somewhere where we can communicate face-to-face and connect physically and mentally. 

The Anatomy of Mars Colonisation
By Rose Warwood & Cassie Hopton

The four pieces show changes to technology, culture and biology that might occur in early Martian colonies. In these early colonies, unexpected changes could occur. For example, growth of plants on Mars could have deformative effect on leaves and orientation of growth. Our pieces depict a documentation of these changes. 

Perception
By Morag Edward

​Morag Edward challenges the distortions of prejudice that prevent inclusion. Who chooses colonists? Will only a certain outwards appearance be selected? Why are disabled people considered unsuitable for space travel? How will colonists then view their fellow chosen ones when injured or ill? Prejudiced 'perfection' is unsustainable. Look inside then look again

Creatures of Habit
By Helen Marshall

​Holidays, work, and social media. Humans are creatures of habit, so these are probably things we will take with us if we ever colonise Mars. 

Blue Space
By Danni Gadd & Ellen Higgins

​Before Mars, we must first understand our earthly experiences. From Ellen’s study of psychodynamic theory of mind and Danni’s study of epigenetic modifications to our DNA standpoints, we ask how mind and body would use past experience to adapt to new environments.
