SymbioticA was established in 2000 by Oron Catts, Stuart Bunt and Miranda Grounds. It is a research laboratory dedicated to the exploration of scientific knowledge in general, and biological technologies in particular, from an artistic and humanistic perspective. It is located in The School of Anatomy & Human Biology at The University of Western Australia. SymbioticA is the first research laboratory of its kind, in that it enables artists to engage in wet biology practices in a biological science department. Collaborative works created by the group include 'Fish & Chips’ (2001) which was exhibited at Ars Electronica in Linz, Austria and and its later incarnation 'MEART- the semi-living artist’ (2002), which was exhibited at the BioFeel Exhibition at the Biennale of Electronic Arts Perth (BEAP) in 2002.
