Broken Code by Laura Ladendorf -SOLD OUT!

Sold
The foundation for Broken Code is a six-color linoleum reduction print. The artwork is based on the straight-forward style used in science/pocket guidebooks and inspired by plants and creatures in the artist’s own garden. This print has been dissected and reassembled in the form of Hedi Kyle’s flag book structure to represent the genetic modification of nature. The printed flags are interlaced with text positioned on the center “flags.” The text combines relatively legible generic statements regarding GMOs with the letters used in DNA sequencing in a cut-up pattern both informative and annoying.
