Microscopic imagery of the Zebrafish development. Filmed at the zebrafish research facility of Leonor Saúde in Lisbon and in the studio in Berlin. The final version of the video work was developed in residency at Basim Magdy’s studio.
“Imagine if we could highlight the highs and lows of our life with fluorescence. A map to keep as a souvenir. We could pin it to our fridge or use it as a social media picture.” - video quote
“Sometimes numbers have the power to make life feel organized and sweet. The Zebrafish has more than 26,000 protein-coding genes. When I think of such a number I feel safe and at the same time confused.” - video quote
