Artist Residency

Diese Seite zeigt einige Ergebnisse der Zusammenarbeit mit Prof. Sebastian Springer, Leiter der Springer Group der Constructor University Bremen, im Rahmen einer Künstlerinnen-Residenz.

Hierbei geht es unter anderem darum, Proteine als Basisbausteine unseres Lebens zu begreifen, ihre Schönheit und beeindruckende Funktionalität zu bewundern und daraus neue Ideen zu entwickeln.

This page presents selected results from a collaboration with Sebastian Springer, head of the Springer Group at Constructor University Bremen, as part of an artist residency.

The work explores, among other things, how proteins can be understood as the fundamental building blocks of life – appreciating their beauty and remarkable functionality, and using these insights as inspiration for developing new ideas.

The Trigrams show which combinations of amino acids are present in which protein – from AAA to YYY

Which amino acids like each other most? The Predecessor-successor matrices show the „best friends“.
