Bio
With equally strong backgrounds in art and molecular biology, experimenting with process and materials is often a starting point for Francesca’s work. She has exhibited both in the United States and internationally and is interested in how we as humans act on our environment even as our environment acts on us, and with opening up the concept of the exhibition and considering ways to access people outside the more typical art channels.
