Mortifera -Julie Anne Mann

Uploaded by Vertigo1871 on Dec 1, 2010
"Mortifera is an ongoing series with approximately 30 different species to date. These works are the reconfiguration of common animals into mutant or hybrid creatures. Some are purely animal, using a Frankensteinian approach of multiple parts from different donors, while others are the possible results of genetically engineered or natural crossbreeds between animal/flora.
While they are traditionally scientific in their immediate appeal (each specimen is titled in Latin reflecting it's attributes, and are reminiscent of Darwinian evolutionary samples) it is difficult to discern whether they are extinct animals undiscovered from the past or the future of animals to come. Familiar and alien at the same time, they resemble insects/animals from a dead world while still retaining the elegance and symmetry found in our immensely diverse eco-structure.
The creatures of Mortifera exist in a netherworld of what is possible or possibly lost. Constructed from remnants of the dead, they have the power to present a somber view of a failing planet and remind us of the transient, ephemeral quality of nature but also it's beauty and wonder. Either singularly or as group they create a portrait that glorifies man's historic accomplishments in natural science while acknowledging the difficult road ahead." (Julie Anne Mann)

On the origin of species by means of unnatural selection... in a post-diluvian patch-world. Fascinating, Vertigo1871!
