Soon organisms will be another medium for
artists to manipulate like clay. There
will be no structure to limit them from doing so.
It will only be the skill of the artist that might eventually
determine a species rather than the genetics of the species.
What looks like a cat may have actually begun life as a cow or
dog. Man made creatures will
walk among those created by mother natures.
Cubist cows and abstracts rats will flourish in our city streets,
traded on eBay, and live amongst us as pets.
This will be accomplished by breaking down the DNA on the
molecular level allowing for free manipulation to occur by outside
forces until they are set by the designer.
Once done however they’ll be able to be changed as many times
as the designer wishes. Life
will truly be customizable. Man
will have ultimate control over nature, redesigning it to his will.
Man will be able to make the natural world his own, work around
his ideas and not that of eons of evolution.
Man will in essence become nature and force an evolution upon the
rest of the world. Genetics
will be broken down to ooze that can be shaped and modeled at will.
Machines with become organic, organic will become mechanical.
What becomes of a world created by own of its creations, and how
does this world react in contrast to the original world? I
create within my work a sense of this possibility.
I look to automotive, furniture, and industrial design for the
clues to what this world may look like.
My work is a mix of both science fiction and modern sculptural
practices. Though based
science fiction and surrealism in concept, I am interested in
materialism and sleek abstract design in the physical manifestation of
the work. Much of my work
comes from dreams, but is edited in the building process.
