Workshop Details
gusfishergallery.auckland.ac.nzJoin artist and researcher Mary Maggic for an evening of “fuzzy biological sabotage” as they present an online workshop as part of our current exhibition The sentiment of flowers. Hear from Mary about their practice of bio-hacking (a do-it-yourself biology) alongside short screenings and a live demonstration of their Estrofem Lab workshop hormone-extraction action.
We hope you can join us for this fun and informative workshop where you can watch and learn from Mary’s insights and practice. Participation in the workshop element is encouraged but not essential. See attachment for list of materials. A zoom link will be made available closer to the time.
Mary Maggic (b. 1991, Los Angeles) is a nonbinary Chinese-American artist and researcher working within the fuzzy intersections of body and gender politics and capitalist ecological alienations. Based in Vienna since 2017, Maggic frequently uses biohacking as a xeno-feminist practice of care that serves to demystify invisible lines of molecular biopower. Maggic is a recipient of the 2022 Knight Arts + Tech Fellowship, and they are a current member of the online network Hackteria: Open Source Biological Art and the Asian feminist collective Mai Ling.
