The Ribosome Wind Garden

Xray of a human body

Ribosomes are protein factories found in all living things. Our bodies are full of proteins, but how are they made? Artist Chris Jarratt in collaboration with Dr Emma Thomson’s lab utilised kinetic sculptures in a wind garden to visualise how ribosomes translate genetic information into proteins. A family-friendly sculpture workshop will be held by Chris Jarratt and the Thomson lab on Saturday the 28th of September from 1pm–3pm.

Winter Garden opening times Monday–Saturday: 8am–8pm Sunday: 10am–5pm
