In Vivo – In Vitro, 1988

Operating as a visual scientist this work is an impossible experiment that examines the relationship between the contrasting and yet inter-dependent identities of the individuals in the group. Fragile glass spheres, evocative of the science laboratory are suspended in groups, which subsume the individuals identity – yet remind us of the unique configuration of identity embedded in the DNA molecule.
