Artwork Description:

This image is part of an ongoing theme that I am exploring using mixed-media and multimedia techniques. I have invented a "pseudo-scientific" study populated by symbolic characters. These were developed using abstracted imagry that I gleaned from studies of chromosomes, especially code abnormalities. Imbuing each of these "characters" with an individual personality and power, I create strange yet familiar environments for them to exist within. This particular piece utilizes a digitally manipulated photograph of a hand-printed work on paper. By utilizing familiar symbols gleaned from science textbooks and "dumbed-down" descriptive diagrams, I create a pseudo-scientific narrative for the viewer. My processes for this series and their visual results correspond directly to the heated issues of technology, art and the ethical questions raised by the decoding of the human genome. I will be producing limited edition archival inkjet prints of this image soon.
