Wedding wet science and high art?

What's some great new bioscience themed art? The more hands-on and interactive the better. Mapping genetic sequences to procedurally generated pictured is all good and well, but does seem a bit trite and decorative these days. What's out there these days saying something in the intersection between wet labs and the gallery?

The folks at io9 recently had a bit on art made with bacteria, cultivating bacteria on gelatin on negatives.

Also, after reading the question title, I was actually disappointed that this wasn't an attempt to design the awesomest bionerd geek wedding decorations. Why should velociraptor-fans and zombie hunters have all the fun? :)

Jalila Essaïdi is an artist working in the Netherlands. In cooperation with the Netherlands Genomics Initiative she managed to create bullet proof skin. Great article here.

Next Nature features a lot of the art you're looking for.
