CRISPR (L) • Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (LATIN)
SEVENTH Piece from SERIES II: CRISPR. This Work Seeks To Represent An Abstract Map Of The Universe. It Transports Us To A Plane Where Time And Language Collide In An Ancestral Genetic Map That Connects The Past With The Future. With A Warm Metallic Sheen, It Suggests A Bridge Between The Primitive And The Most Advanced Technologies. This Canvas Becomes A Symbolic Time Machine, Where Art And CRISPR Biotechnology Converge To Narrate The Evolution Of Humanity Through The Very Structure Of Life.
The Yellow Dot Radiates Pure Energy, As If It Were The Original Atom… The One That Started It All In The Middle Of The Chaos Of The Cosmic Soup Before The Big Bang.
The Coarse Textures Of Dark Colors Suggest Organic Matter, They Are The Raw Material Of The Past: Rock And Earth. They Are Traces Of Evolution, As If They Were Fragments Of Fossils That Hold Secrets Of Millions Of Years. In Contrast, The Fine And Precise Lines That Run Through The Work Are The Present, Where Humanity Tries To Impose Logic And Order Through Technology, Designing Patterns That Try To Control What Was Previously Unpredictable. The Shapes Seem To Move, As If The Canvas Were Alive, Evolving Before The Eyes Of The Viewer. This TENSION Between The Organic And The Artificial Is The Bridge To The Future.
In The Work There Are 7 Palindromic Words In Latin, They Are Echoes Of The Past, Echoes Of The Symmetry Found In Genetics: Each Code Has A Beginning And An End, Which At The Same Time Are An End And A Beginning. The Longest Palindromic Sentence Is An Enigma: An Invitation To Reflect On The Inevitability Of Our Relentless Quest For Transcendence.
Latin, A "Dead" Language, Is REVIVED In This Work Of Art, Just As Modern Scientists Can "Revive" Dormant Genes With Gene Editing. It Invites Us To Contemplate Whether The Innovation We Seek Is Really A Return To Something That Was Always There, Waiting To Be Rediscovered.
In The End, CRISPR (L) Poses A Provocative Question: What Happens When We Become Authors Of Our Own Genetic Programming?
WARNING: On The Back Of The Work A SECRET Detail Is Revealed That Could Bring Fortune To Whoever Decides To Invest In This Enigmatic Work Of Art.
