Meredith Tromble is an artist and writer who has worked in "in-between" spaces throughout her career: mixing drawing, performance, and installation; writing about her own creative process and the work of others; and engaging crossover points between art and science. She has been artist-in-residence at the Complexity Sciences Center at the University of California, Davis (UCD), since 2011. Her ongoing collaboration with UCD geobiologist Dawn Sumner, the interactive 3-D art installation "Dream Vortex," has been presented internationally at ISEA2015, Vancouver and Creativity & Cognition, Glasgow School of Art, 2015, and nationally at more than a dozen public lectures at American universities ranging from Stanford University in Palo Alto to Brown University in Providence. A related dance performance “The Vortex," a collaboration with choreographer Donna Sternberg, will debut at The Odyssey in Los Angeles April 20-21, 2018. Tromble is also the co-editor, with Charissa Terranova, of "The Routledge Companion to Biology in Art & Architecture; editor of “The Art and Films of Lynn Hershman Leeson,” from University of California Press; and author of hundreds of short form writings on art including a paper for the Artnodes Journal special issue on Art & Research, Winter, 2018.
