Embodying Symbiosis: a Philosophy of Mind in Drawing Amber Stucke

Embodying Symbiosis: A Philosophy of Mind in Drawing is an essay on Amber Stucke's art practice in creating drawings for her investigations and explorations on symbiosis state. It is a project exploring and investigating how she embodies the idea of symbiosis through an intensive drawing relationship interconnecting evolutionary biology, consciousness, philosophy, and the imagination. By combining experiential and rational knowledge systems together within drawings, Stucke appropriates from visual taxonomies to create conversations between local knowledge systems of the human body and scientific classification structures.
