Position Title
Visiting Artist
Meredith Tromble is an intermedia artist and writer whose curiosity about links between imagination and knowledge led her to form collaborations with scientists in addition to making installations, drawings, and performances. She is also the editor of two books, The Routledge Companion to Biology in Art and Architecture, co-edited with Charissa Terranova, and The Art and Films of Lynn Hershman, University of California Press. Since 2011, Tromble has been artist-in-residence at the Complexity Sciences Center directed by physicist Jim Crutchfield at the University of California, Davis. Her collaborations with geobiologist Dawn Sumner and others have been widely presented at venues ranging from the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco and National Academy of Sciences, Washington, D.C. to Ars Electronica, Linz, Austria and the Pratt Manhattan Gallery, New York. She is co-editor of the Bloomsbury book series “Biotechne: Interthinking Art, Science, and Design” and an Emeritus Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies/Art & Technology, San Francisco Art Institute.
