BIO-AI SUBSTRATES SERIES
Redefining material design with AI and digital design, the BioAI Substrates Series harnesses computational design and artificial intelligence to explore the potential of natural material intelligence combined with AI to create biomaterial substrates for sustainable applications.
This series consists of two primary projects: Bio Corals and Bio Mycelium. Each project uniquely integrates biological principles with computational design, merging AI with biodesign principles to use technology in supporting nature to design and create sustainable biomaterials.
The work is situated within the broader theoretical framework of biomimicry and computational morphogenesis, introducing AI as a collaborator in the design process and creating a collaborative triad of human designer, artificial intelligence, and biological systems.
The BioAI Substrates Series represents a shift in material design, harnessing the synergy between natural material intelligence and AI-driven computational design for sustainable, supportive applications. The series exemplifies how cutting-edge technology can be leveraged to support and enhance natural processes.
Balancing the immense potential of these technologies with careful consideration of their broader ecological and societal impacts, this work not only demonstrates new possibilities but also invites deeper reflection on the future relationship between humanity, technology, ecology, and the natural world.
The Bio-Substrates Series reflects Karle’s broader design philosophy of integrating digital processes with biological principles to create innovative and sustainable solutions. By exploring the potential of AI in biodesign, these projects challenge conventional approaches to material science and environmental design, paving the way for a future where technology and nature coexist harmoniously.

Amy Karle is an artist who uses the mind, body, science and technology to create art. Karle’s artwork taps our ideas of what it means to be human and in this body, expressing internal, ephemeral experiences in visual forms. Working across a variety of platforms she engages questions about what it means to be human by creating projects on, around, or about the body; it is the subject and the medium. Garments based on anatomy Amy Karle, 2016 Silk, polyester, cotton, natural and synthetic fibers. Wearable art garments inspired by the human nervous system, lung, and ligaments. Merging anatomy, fashion, and technology, the pieces are each created in a different method incorporating reality capture, 3D scans of the body, anatomical style drawings into digital designs (CAD), laser cut pattern pieces and finally hand and machine sewn garments. Each design had a unique approach. The “Breathe” lung dress and jumpsuit based on the nervous system was created from anatomical style drawings hand drawn by the artist then rendered into a pattern in the CAD modeling environment; the dress inspired by ligaments was derived from Verlan Dress from New Skins with Francis Bitonti Studio workshop at the Digital Arts and Humanities Research Centre of the Pratt Institute in New York that wrapped form around the body in 3D digital environment which the artist custom fit to a 3D body scan and flattened into flat pattern pieces in order to laser cut and construct out of soft material. In the process of making these pieces, Artist Amy Karle addresses current industrial challenges of: utilizing 3D scanning to create custom fit patterns and garments, unwrapping and flattening complex CAD patterns in the digital environment, advanced pattern making in 3D digital environments into real-world soft goods, and creating zero and low-waste fashion designs.
