Object Retrieval. (360G-Wellcome-088649_Z_09_Z)

£30,000

Object Retrieval is an exciting 8 month interdisciplinary project culminating in a highly innovative week-long performative event. In this event a massive team of researchers from across UCL's science, social science and arts faculties will explore the 'biography' of one object from UCL's remarkable but undervalued Pathology Collection. This real-time research will creatively demonstrate the synergistic benefits of interdisciplinary research through unravelling an object usually situated exclusively within a medical context. Open to the public, Object Retrieval, led by artist Joshua Sofaer highlights the increasingly cross-disciplinary nature of biomedical research in a 21 century university and will bring welcome attention to the pathology collection. A multi-media wiki will accompany the project and ensure an enduring legacy, along with a limited edition artwork/resource pack for teaching.
