A consistent theme that permeates anikolab’s work is to find a visual and experiential language of the invisible, translating the ephemeral and unseen into cultural forms. Two projects that embody this theme are the Plant Anima Project and the Toronto Transit Commission's Victoria Park Subway Station. In one project built form is envisioned with the use of genetic engineering. In the later, public art takes the role of a palimpsest to reflect the community that it serves.
