Ben Harman, Director of Stills: Centre for Photography in Edinburgh, speaks to Crystal Bennes.

Crystal Bennes is an American-born artist and writer based in Scotland. Her mixed media practice is grounded in long-term projects that foreground archival research, durational fieldwork and material experimentation. Since 2015, much of her work has been interested in the culture of international particle physics research, feminist critiques of physics and gendered representations of nature in the history of science. She is currently working on her first photobook—exploring the relationships between atomic weapons development, computer simulations, military photography and women programmers—which will be published in April next year with The Eriskay Connection.
