Jillian Ciemitis was Artist in Residence at Edith Cowan University Printmaking Studio in Perth, Western Australia during August – September, 2012.  Throughout the six week residency, Jillian conceived and screen printed Biophilia Hypothesis, a series of photographic screen prints which transmogrify branch patterning so that the resulting images become meditations on neural pathways and plasticity.
