CRISPR (G) • Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (GERMAN)
FIFTH Piece from SERIES II: CRISPR. Here lies a disquieting question born from a piece that brims with tension, dramatized through aggressive movements, bold strokes, and daring color: What happens when we reprogram what makes us human? Will we lose our imperfections, the very ones that often define our greatest singularities? This canvas delves into that uncertainty through fractured harmony, inviting each viewer to draw their own conclusions.
The Color of BLOOD forms the foundation upon which this entire work is built. Blood, the carrier of our DNA—the very code we aim to influence through CRISPR biotechnology to optimize, to alter, or let’s call it what it is: to EXPERIMENT on human beings in our unrelenting quest for the UNKNOWN.
This is a work that is VIOLENT, CHAOTIC, CRYPTIC… an artifact of profound personal introspection. It is a macabre dance, a visual collision that challenges the viewer to confront the ethical boundaries of human power over creation.
Every solid mark of color on 9 lines of the piece conceals a letter that, together, form a SECRET palindrome in GERMAN. These are linguistic fragments replicating the silent violence of rewriting the code of life, leaving behind traces of beauty and devastation… of order and disorder. They are like scars—representing mutilation and reconstruction happening all at once.
WARNING: On the back, a SECRET DETAIL is revealed that could bring fortune to whoever decides to invest in this enigmatic work of art.
