Mutate
This series creates a junction between human femininity, genetic mutation and digital photography. The images are processed in a way meant to simulate genetic sequencing, duplication, and engineering, by replacing, inserting and copying certain corresponding genetic sequences into the binary codes of the images. This process pertains to not only the genetic issues of evolution and sexual selection, but also the medium of digital photography. (Duplication, engineering, sequencing of code.) Each image has elements of preservative materials, human and non, representing the subjects' desperate struggle/failure for survival.
