poster for "Substantialis Corporis Mixti" Exhibition

This event has ended.

The exhibition explores how the aggregation of imperceptible bodies (aggregatione corporum insensibilium), including toxic chemicals or produced as byproducts of consumer waste, impact the nature of our bodies and the natural world.

The exhibition’s title, Substantialis Corporis Mixti, is taken from the medieval chemistry essay, De Mixtione Elementorum (“On the mixture of the elements”, circa 1272), by Thomas Aquinas. The United Nations Safe Planet Campaign promotes human bio-monitoring as a method of assessing the toxic chemical burden increasingly borne by the life of our planet.
