Our Residents are an evolving community of creative practitioners whose practice aligns with our mission to bring positive social impact to the intersection of art, technology & science. Read the latest blog post to meet the five new Residents: bom.org.uk/2022/10/11/introd…
A grey back ground features six circles equally spaced. Five of the circles has the face of our five new Residents in, they've all had a blue turquoise overlay. The sixth circle is a vivid orange with the text 'introducing the new residents' in white.

Through each person who watched #912artproject @BOMlab, I felt what this project is about. After months of working through the technicalities, I experienced the emotions the work brings out and connected with beautiful souls #transhealth #transresilience #transnatratives #vrart

A photograph taken in our basement gallery. The room is almost dark with a large screen to the left, where we see a still from a film showing a figure running on a green field with wooded landscape beyond. To the right is a series of small works mounted on the wall, they appear to be light boxes or illuminated screens.

A photograph taken in our basement gallery. The room is dark, to the left is a floor to ceiling black curtain, in the centre is an illuminated area, where lights from the ceiling are diffused by a ring of hanging lengths of transparent fabric which reach almost to the floor. It looks mysterious.
