Would you like to work in a place where science meets art and where an exhibition is not just a gallery, but an experience? For those with an interest in bio-design, science and art, we offer the opportunity to intern in our exhibition department.

Stichting Mediamatic

Mediamatic is an art lab that focuses on new developments in art, biology and science. Through art projects, lectures and workshops we bring together the fields of science and art. In our program we challenge the senses and perceptions of food, waste and unconventional materials. In this way we support developments in bio-art and actively contribute to a circular economy.
