About Bart Segers
Bart is an entrepreneur and visual artist with a background in technology, life sciences and art. He started his career in the medical field in the 90’s when he joined a public, US-based, medical device company. In the process of promoting cutting-edge medical technology, Bart traveled around the globe and developed an affinity with the world’s diversity in general and various cultures and art in specific.
Genae
In 2005, he founded genae, a contract research provider for the life science industry. Through organic growth in the US and Europe, and acquisitions in Japan and the Middle East, genae developed into a reference, data-driven service provider for the medical industries. In 2019, Bart closed the acquisition of genae by an American multinational.
Royal academy of fine arts
He started to paint at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 2016 and has further developed as a visual artist since then.
Inorganic life®
In INORGANIC LIFE®, his first solo installation art project, Bart explores the social, political, and economic topics of our time.

About Fabrice Genevois
Field guide and lecturer on expedition ships
Fabrice is a French biologist with a special interest on wildlife of the Polar Regions. Expert in ornithology, he firmly believes that birds are an inexhaustible source of wonder as well as a great excuse to travel around the World. His experience in the Polar Regions dates to 1989, when he spent 18 months working as a field researcher on seabirds and marine mammals of the remote Sub-Antarctic Kerguelen Islands.
Leading trips in antarctica
In the early 90s, he began working as a field guide and lecturer on expedition ships, leading trips for bird lovers to the Antarctic Peninsula, the Weddell and the Ross seas in Antarctica, as well as the famous North-East and North-West passages in the high Arctic.
Author
Fabrice is the author of several books about birds of the polar regions, including the ‘Pocket Guide to the Birds of the Antarctic Peninsula’ and ‘Antarctic Penguins: A visual Journey’. More recently, he published two illustrated books on Seabird Biology and Ecology. His last book deals with the Ecology of Sea Ice and the consequences of sea ice decline in the context of climate change.
Also likes to
When he is not travelling in the Polar Regions, Fabrice enjoy riding his horses in the countryside of central France and conducts field research on birds with the Museum of Natural History (Paris).

Alexander Badri-Spröwitz
Scientific Advisor
Alexander studies how legged animals move and aim to understand the biomechanics, morphology, and neurocontrol involved. His team and himself develop legged robots and computer models to test our theories. By using these robots, they generate rich data, comparing it with data from actual running animals.
Creating robots that imitate animal movement
Alexander’s interests range from creating robots that imitate animal movement to designing sensors and actuators inspired by biology, learning how creatures move, and comprehending the biomechanics of both animals and robots.
