TOSCA TERÁN

Tosca Terán (Nanotopia) is an interdisciplinary artist whose work bridges bioart, sound, and immersive media to explore more-than-human consciousness through spatial storytelling. Working with fungi, lichens, and microbial life as collaborators, she transforms their bio-electrical activity into living soundscapes and responsive environments that blur the boundaries between human and nonhuman experience. Her acclaimed immersive project, Symbiosis/Dysbiosis, and current project with Sororitas ex Mycelio, alterLife: interBeing, The Forest Remembers, invite audiences into speculative fabulations on multispecies worlds that challenge extractive systems of thought and foster empathy with the intelligence of the forest. Recognized by NASA’s Ames Research Center and supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, Goethe-Institut Montréal, and SUNY Buffalo’s Coalesce Center for Biological Art, Tosca’s work has been presented internationally at venues including Ars Electronica, MOCA Toronto, and the Venice Film Festival. Through her practice, she transforms technology into an instrument of listening and care, a space where art and ecology meet in quiet resistance to patriarchal ways of being.
