The Series

Each series takes one organism, or one structure, and goes close enough that it stops being recognisable. Five prints per series. Twenty-five of each print. Then it's finished, permanently.


01 · Neoteny

The animal that refused to grow up.

Most amphibians rebuild their bodies and walk out of the water. The axolotl can, and simply doesn't — it keeps the wide flat head and the branching gill stalks for life. Five prints, five parts of the same animal: the gills, the foot, the skin, the eye, the tail.


02 · The Genome

Ten times your DNA.

The axolotl carries a genome roughly ten times the size of a human one — among the largest ever sequenced. Not because it's more complicated. Because it repeats itself, at enormous length. Repetition is the subject and the composition at the same time.


03 · Regrowth

The seam that isn't there.

Take a limb from an axolotl and it grows a new one — bone, muscle, nerve, skin, no scar. It will do it again if you ask. These are about the join you can't find.


05 · Mitochondria

The thing in your cells that isn't quite you.

The structure making your energy right now has its own DNA, separate from yours, inherited only from your mother. It was probably a free-living bacterium that got swallowed and never left.


08 · Structural Colour

There is no blue in a blue feather.

Grind one up and the powder is brown. The blue was never pigment — it was microscopic architecture scattering light. Destroy the arrangement and the colour is gone, because the colour was the arrangement.


Also in development: the anemone, diatoms, the tardigrade, pollen, mycelium, and a single neuron. New series go to the list first.
