Meet Our Artist Residents
We’re excited to have Heather Dewey-Hagborg join us as ThoughtWorks’ newest artist resident. Heather is an artist and researcher known for her work highlighting the implications of DNA as data.
During her time at ThoughtWorks, Heather intends to begin a new body of work, currently named Sell/Bio, in which she will research the “histories, infrastructures, protocols and business models” that position DNA as a “commodity to be bought and sold on the open market.”
 Heather joins our current Artist Residents, the Cyborg Foundation (Neil Harbisson and Moon Ribas), as they continue their work creating new human senses with technology. Read more about their projects and progress on our blog.
Follow the artist's progress through the residency blog, twitter, instagram and email newsletter.
