Evolution

This body of work focuses on the morphological characteristics of a human species due to climate change. The Turn-Over Pulse Theory allows you to look at drastic changes in ecosystems and see how the organisms respond and adapt to these changes. These small humanoid sculptures embody this theory and ask:  what new features would we evolve if we had to adapt physiologically to a changing world? This work also references biomedical research and the introduction of non-human DNA to our systems. How does this new DNA respond within the host and a changing ecological system.
