Ancestry  Soy ink print on tissue, clay, chalk and spirulina pigments.
c. H3m x D40mm

Ancestry contemplates the interconnection and molecular exchanges between deep earth and deep space via folded and layered sculptures made from telescope data printed in soy inks and coloured with clay based pigments and cyanobacteria (in the form of spirulina). The monumental forms are evocative of hydrothermal vents, where life is thought to have originated and stromatolites, ancient life forms comprising stony structures built by colonies of microscopic photosynthesising cyanobacteria.
