Lauren Bon is the founder of the Metabolic Studio, where she practices at the intersection of art and philanthropy. Working with “social brownfields”—locations that for environmental, political or other reasons are unable to support life—Lauren and the Metabolic Studio make “metabolic sculptures:” site-specific objects that, through the process of their installation and maintenance, foster relationships, actions, and events that transform the site into a more healthful environment and galvanize transition within complex bureaucracies. www.metabolicstudio.org
