Stem cell research has long stirred strong emotions and sparked vivid imaginations. It is a field shaped by hope, controversy, and intense media attention, where science, ethics, religion, and commercial interests intersect.
At the same time, new stem cell technologies fuel sci-fi-like visions of tailor-made organs and challenge the boundaries between the “natural” and the “artificial.” How can art create new languages and images for the world of stem cells? And how can art and literature help bring nuance to the debate, open up new perspectives, and invite more people into the conversation?
The talk is part of the double exhibition Liquid Bodies, presented across Medicinsk Museion and Politiken’s Forhal, explores this question through a combination of contemporary art, historical objects, and stem cell research.
