The Biophilium is a nomadic, artist run residency program that offers
unique opportunities for smart creative people to study the natural world with the support of research scientists.
It's our pleasure to offer online classes so you can safely participate from home.
We look forward to resuming field expeditions in 2024.

Our online webinars are courses of 8 weekly lectures and discussions for practicing creative people.
Our in person artist residencies are week-long research expeditions in wild places.
Current topics include: conservation, sensory perception, marine biology, botany, entomology, ornithology, mycology and death.

The Biophilium’s goal is to support the conceptual development of contemporary art and to facilitate conversation between scientists, artists and thinkers of all kinds. Together we meet experts, peek behind the scenes and ask questions about the nature of ecology. We hope to help artists direct the attentions of their audiences to the natural world. |
