Blood on Silk 1 also sometimes called Blood on Silk 2, 2011, silk and rice paper, found objects, site specific.

This is where it began in 2011 with an exhibition at the Accelerator Gallery of the art science organisation, Culture at Work in Pyrmont. Run by the late Sherryl Ryan this was an amazing space that gave me the opportunity to have both a studio and access to an exhibition space. The ability to easily see your work installed outside of your studio is a fantastic gift.

At the time I wrote about Blood on Silk that - 'Blood on Silk is a collaborative project between Dr Peter Domachuk, Dr Lee Anne Hall and Fiona Davies. This collaboration arose from an accidental intersection while Fiona was developing an installation in the foyer of the School of Physics at the University of Sydney Australia in September – October 2010. That work was titled Memorial / Double Pump Laplace II, and was the second in a series of three, site specific installations, loosely based on narratives of the dying and death of Fiona’s father, in 2001. During the four and a half months her father spent in intensive care the daily routine taking of blood samples became part of the pattern of the day.

Dr. Peter Domachuk’s research project adds new layers as it studies silk implantable microchips to allow real time measurement of the properties of blood while that blood is still circulating within the body. These silk microchips are refined, transparent and dissolvable therefore disposable, a biophotonic chip. Dr. Lee-Anne Hall a creative writer and museum studies expert also added layers of interpretation to the collaboration.
