Artist Talk: Tarah Rhoda

About

Tarah Rhoda received her BFA in 2010 from the School of Visual Arts in New York City and also studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. She is currently based in Brooklyn and is the manager of the SVA Bio Art laboratory, where she researches live materials and explores the intersection of art, science and technology. Yanking at the micro and macro, her work investigates the body as a miniature world—one with landscapes, weather, and systems of self-maintenance that produce a spectrum of minerals and artifacts. Her most current project investigates the remarkable relationship between chlorophyll and hemoglobin.
