InterWoven
For the past eight years, Scherer has focused on developing the interdisciplinary project InterWoven – Exercises in Rootsystem Domestication. This publication will discuss research, new craft and its relevance to biotechnology in addition to the artworks. Contemplative essays will play a central role in the conceptual design. Authors are Giovanni Aloi, Judith Elisabeth Weiss, Phillip Fimmano and Norbert Peeters. In their essays, the four authors from the disciplines of art, textiles and botany reflect on the different facets of the project. In 2015, Scherer began developing Interwoven from idea to material, grown dresses to large-scale installations. The project and its innovative bioengineering is seen as interesting and is now widely copied internationally. We see this development as a great compliment, but we also want this publication to show her position as a pioneer.
