Arts The Museum of Scientifically Accurate Fabric Brain Art
I was looking up something else when I found it.
The museum exhibits the world’s largest collection of anatomically correct fabric art, inspired by research from neuroscience and dissection. Our current exhibition features three quilts with functional images from PET and fMRI scanning, and an anatomically accurate knitted brain.
The two artists in the latest exhibition to hit this online museum are Karen Norberg, whose knitted fallopian tubes look a little like pastel sea creatures, and Marjorie Taylor, who renders, in quilts, brains hooked up to monitoring machines. Taylor, according to a link on the site, is the head of the psychology department at the University of Oregon.
that rocks. awesome.
