Lookit Mother Nature on the Run

 

The book comprises a series of connected panels with lush, colorful painting on one side and a montage of black and white drawing, painting and collaged bits on the other. Get lost in the gorgeous lush life nature offers up especially in the warm months when the garden is loud and wild. Flip the panels to the other side which is purposefully devoid of color and life, depicting a mash up of references to broken DNA, confused people, GMO plants exhibiting their genetic modifications in sur-reality. The panels are connected with hinges and the front panel has a mica window with a few corn kernels. As an opened piece it must hang to reveal both sides. This book preceded the creation of  Broken Code.
