INCUBATOR Hybrid Laboratory at the Intersection of Art, Science and Ecology is a physical and theoretical hub, a new art/science laboratory at The University of Windsor. Founded in 2009 it functions both as an apparatus in which environmental conditions can be controlled towards the assisted proliferation of life, but also as a site that supports the proliferation of new ideas – new artistic practices.

Sharing more of the wonderful creations from our talented students in Dr. Jennifer Willet's bioart class!

Students in this year's class were asked to select, research, and construct a costume based on a microbe of their choosing. We can't stop talking about the craftsmanship and enthusiasm our students showcased for the Microbial Fashion Show at CAW Centre in March. Big thanks to for sponsoring the event!

We had an amazing time with some teachers from the Greater Essex County District School Board during this morning's workshop with Dr. Jennifer Willet!

We talked all things bioart, accessible and interdisciplinary education, and even did some painting with algae together as a group. We love working with other educators to dream up new ways of creating and learning. STEAM education is the future! 🔬🎨

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

To celebrate, we're sharing some of Dr. Jennifer Willet's work with one of the world's most adaptable organisms - algae!

Algae Dress is a prototype that integrates fashion and costume design with the cultivation of live spirulina algae cultures. This installation includes an 8 foot tall humanoid/algae figure. A work of science fiction or magical realism, Algae Dress invites us to consider algae’s numerous roles in our terrestrial ecology, and possible visions of biotech algae futures.
