Baltimore artist Ryan Hoover presents a visiting artist lecture. Hoover teaches at Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) in the interdisciplinary sculpture department.

Hoover employs a range of digital, biological and traditional artistic media to explore technology, its history and the future of its impact on society and the individual. He exhibits throughout the United States, as well as internationally, and is a board member of the Baltimore Under Ground Science Space, where he leads research and development on bioprinting. His current long-term project at the Baltimore Under Ground Science Space is a collaborative endeavor developing a 3D printer that constructs objects from living biological materials. www.ryanhoover.org
