Eve + Bowie
Eve + Bowie are artists Eve Biddle and Bowie Zunino working as a collaborative team, creating relational, community-oriented, participatory events.  edible sculptures and temporary tattoos engage the viewer through eating and wearing.  These absurd and intimate experiences of consuming or physically handling the art create common bonds between participants.  through conversation and private thought we cause people to question and expand their perceptions with the firm belief that challenging the way people think can bring about social awareness and change.

We will be creating and exhibiting the project Temporary Vitals.  We began working with women who have had their thyroids removed.  We created temporary tattoos of drawings made of thyroids and asked the women to wear the "temporary vital" on their necks where their thyroid used to be.  We photographed their necks and then presented the photographs along with temporary tattoos so that viewers could apply the tattoos to themselves and each other. 

We will be expanding the project to the entire endocrine system, and designing new interactive materials and distribution models for learning.  Each major gland in the endocrine system is integral to our bodies but most people do not where they are or what they do.

Eve + Bowie, along with Elan Bogarin created the Wassaic Project, an annual event of free art, music, dance, performance and camping in Wassaic, NY.
