Abstract

VacZineNations! is a collaborative artwork led by Rachelle Viader Knowles and Mkrtich Tonoyan, produced by artists, students and designers in the UK, Canada, China and Armenia, and exhibited as part of <Immune Nations> at Galleri KiT in Trondheim, Norway, and UNAIDS in Geneva, Switzerland in 2017. This critical dialogue text gives insight to the necessarily messy approach used to develop a project with over a hundred participants, working from multiple disciplinary and geographic perspectives. This text is accompanied by a second paper that positions the artwork within the context of practice-led research.
