| Description : | Leah Heiss in collaboration with Nanotechnology Victoria is developing a range of jewellery for treating diabetes. The Patch Projects are focused on developing jewellery-based wearables which contain Nanotechnology Victoria’s MicroArray patches. MicroArray patches are small (10 x 2mm) circular discs which have an array of micro needles on their surface. They can be infused with insulin to replace syringes, as the insulin can enter the body through the dermis. The Patch projects include a wearable applicator device - a necklace which allows you to administer the patches to the skin. In addition, I am developing a series of rings which hold the patches in place once they have been administered.This project is being developed as part of the AIR residency with Nanotechnology Victoria, supported by ANAT - Australian Network for Art and Technology and Arts Victoria. |
