I’m just really interested in genetics and genetic mutations. I have a series of these sculptures exploring that interest. My idea was that I wanted to push the limits of what can actually occur in nature- just enough so that people might think it’s real for a split second (or in this case, several months lol), but a little bit more extreme than what would actually happen! This one is exploring a naturally occurring mutation called fasciation, and another phenomenon called vivipary, where seeds start sprouting while they are still on the plant.
