Known for developing the concept of the Biometric Sublime – an applied neuroaesthetic framework that translates biometric data into immersive sensory environments .
Biography
Bojana Ginn is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist, former Medical Doctor and scientist, curator, writer, and public speaker. Drawing from art, science, technology, spirituality, and sustainability, she creates multimedia installations, sculptures, and photography that integrate recyclable and natural materials such as wool, cotton, and jute. Her practice bridges the technological and the elemental, pairing biometrics and digital systems with tactile, renewable fibers to create immersive environments rooted in embodied experience.
Her abstract work explores the body and landscape in an era defined by digital and biotechnologies, the recognition of healthcare as a human right, ecological awareness, and the contemplation of the technological sublime.
Recipient of the prestigious Ellsworth Kelly Award granted by the Foundation for Contemporary Art in New York, Ginn exhibits in Atlanta, nationally, and internationally. Her work has been presented at the Venice Architectural Biennale, Museum of Arts and Design in New York, IMMENSIVA Art and Technology in Barcelona, Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia, David J. Sencer CDC Museum, Georgia Cyber Center, and Telfair Museums, among others.
Nominated for the World Technology Award in Art and a fellow of the World Technology Network, Ginn has curated SciArt content and written an Art & Science column for BURNAWAY. She has delivered keynote speeches for BEINGS — International Conference on Ethics in Bioengineering — and for International Art and Mathematics Conferences in Atlanta and Baltimore.
She frequently collaborates with scientific institutions in Atlanta, including the Georgia Institute of Technology (Department of Astrophysics, NASA-related research) and Emory University.
Art Statement
I approach art as a space of transformation and emergence, where the materials, knowledge, and technologies of the present are transformed through my own perception, cognition, imagination, and embodied experience. Through this process, I create images, objects, and immersive environments that explore the relationship between matter, consciousness, and human flourishing.
My work asks how beauty, technology, and sensory experience can shape the way we perceive ourselves and our place within larger biological and ecological systems.
I am interested in the moment when something becomes simultaneously familiar and unknown – when an encounter attracts us, stimulates us, and leaves us with a sense of wonder.
Through sustained dialogue with academia and cross-disciplinary collaboration, I position art as a site where scientific inquiry, environmental responsibility, and human experience converge, expanding how we understand well-being in a technologically mediated world.
