My work explores genetic modification and its possible after-effects. Genetic modification offers humans the resources and means to change the composition of species, from the microscopic level to the macroscopic system, by deleting or adding an attribute to suit our own desires. But what is disposable? Too often we don’t have a clear view of what the ramifications will be for a plant that has been altered or the species that depends upon it for survival.
The new outcome of this potentiality can capsize a natural balance or create a new species for that balance. This possibility is as exciting as it is frightening. There is beauty in the unknown.
