Tashia Tucker's project considers the practical benefits of a countertop, floor or wall surface that can detect pesticides, pathogens and allergens and then alert us to their presence. The collection of three dynamic surfaces offers a glimpse into the interdisciplinary field of synthetic biology and the future evolution of living materials. It examines how biologically embedded materials could look and function in the future through the use of micro-processing, depth imaging, a multi-pedal sensor map and silicone casting.- Drexel University
