Plexus Projects welcomes Susana Igreja for a one-week studio residency dedicated to experimental development at the intersection of art, science, and embodied perception. Drawing on her background in biomedical sciences, Igreja investigates relationships between biological processes and human experience. During her residency, she will expand an ongoing video installation incorporating microscopy footage and experimental sound. Through investigations of projection, spatial composition, and architectural intervention, Igreja will explore how cellular movement can be translated into immersive sensory experiences, revealing connections between microscopic phenomena, bodily awareness, and the boundaries of human perception.
Susana Igreja is an interdisciplinary artist working at the intersection of art and science. She holds a PhD in Biomedical Sciences from the University of London and carried out postdoctoral research at the University of Lisbon. Her scientific career focused on studying human diseases at the molecular and cellular level and developing innovative therapeutic approaches. She now translates scientific research into artistic form. Inspired by microscopy images and videos of human cells, she transforms scientific imagery into painting, video installations, sound, and experimental visual forms. Through her work, she explores perception, embodiment, interdependence, and transformation, inviting people to connect with what lies beyond the visible.
