Petri Dish Contamination




It was decided that  trying to grow fungus and bacteria within a Petri dish would be too difficult, so we went for the DIY approach. As a group today we sat in the studio using a range of materials such as oil, water, water colours and acrylics and started to paint and create shapes and forms within the dish. The most successful images we took were ones that were almost accidental and messy. Projecting the dishes onto the wall was interesting , the light box created a range of colour we hadn't  discovered within the Petri dishes. The projection highlighted various shapes and forms within the dishes.
