HIV Science as Art
Listen now
Description
The HIV Science as Art exhibition brought twelve artists with HIV together with scientists to create original work that reflects the concepts of their scientific work at the International AIDS Conference 2024 in Munich, Germany. These works represented a diverse spectrum of artistic expression – from fashion design and painting to photography, sculpture and video. All originals were then auctioned off with the proceeds being used to support programs and services for people living with HIV. In this episode we’ll hear from scientists, artists and curators about their work and their experiences.
