What does it mean to be human in the age of rapidly evolving technology? Are humans, machines, and ecology simply nodes in a network? What implications does that have for our sense of self? The New Biology series uses abstract forms to suggest ecosystems, from a tiny nucleus to a giant planet. Indecipherable from each other, these forms are intended to raise the question of perspective - size is only relative to one’s own position in the ecosystem. Watercolour and ink are used due to the self-determining qualities of these mediums when mixed with water. Each painting is planned but takes on a life of its own, heading in often unexpected directions - much like the man-made technology that is advancing so quickly today.
