Site-responsive outdoor work by Julie Harrison

Julie Harrison has been invited to create a site-responsive outdoor work at The Residency Project, located in Pasadena, California. Bodies #8332: Pasadena, composed of images of microorganisms found in soil and plants indigenous to the Los Angeles-Southern California area, will be up from May 1 – June 30, 2021.

"I printed examples of Achromobacter, Bacillus, Bradyrhzobium, Cupriavidus, Enteroccoccus, Pseudomonas, Stenotrophomonas, and Steptomyces in varied sizes, combined them with paper scraps on paper, and drew into it. The drawing is 16.75" x 22.75" and has been digitally printed on aluminum to sustain the outdoor elements and installed outside on location at The Residency Project." - Julie Harrison

"Digging deeply into these invisible but vibrant lifeforms in an attempt to bring them to the surface, Bodies #8332: Pasadena presents an imaginary microbiome that blurs the boundary between science and fiction." —artist Sarah Umles, founder and director of The Residency Project.
