DNA sequences
DNA sequences. Computer composite of several autoradiograms of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequences, sometimes known as DNA fingerprints. The bands have been manipulated to different sizes for artistic effect and do not represent a serious scientific statement. A DNA sample can be taken from body fluids such as blood, and body tissues. The DNA is then fragmented with enzymes to form the banding pattern. The bands represent the positioning of the base pairs on the DNA molecule. This banding makes up the genetic code in the form of genes which is unique to every person

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alfred Pasieka showcases the intricate beauty of DNA sequences. The computer composite of several autoradiograms creates a visually stunning representation of these genetic codes, commonly referred to as DNA fingerprints. Although the bands in this artwork have been manipulated for artistic effect and do not hold any scientific significance, they serve as a mesmerizing reminder of the complexity within our bodies. DNA samples can be extracted from various body fluids and tissues such as blood, providing scientists with valuable information about an individual's unique genetic makeup. Enzymes are then used to fragment the DNA, forming distinct banding patterns that represent the positioning of base pairs on the double helix structure. These bands essentially encode our genes, which differ from person to person. The molecular structure depicted in this print highlights both the elegance and importance of genetics in understanding human health and biology. Each line and bar represents a crucial piece of information that contributes to our overall genetic fingerprint – a code that is entirely unique to each individual. Alfred Pasieka's artistry allows us to appreciate not only the scientific significance but also the aesthetic appeal found within DNA sequences. It serves as a reminder that even at its most fundamental level, life itself is truly remarkable.
