Summary:
The different color army soldiers in my piece represent different
dna bases. The As and Cs constitute the Allied Powers, while the
Ts and Gs make up the Axis Powers. Their interaction with each other
represents the bonds between bases, and is shown through fighting
between the two sides. I enforced a system in which transformations
were made, where a base is replaced by the opposing side when attacked
by two opposing soldiers simultaneously. I tried to show battle
strategies by transforming the bases into formations that looked
like battle formations.

Summary:
My
creative art project works with same principles as the works of
such artists as Karl Sims and Stephen Rooke. The main idea is that
the artwork is created using Charles Darwin's evolutionary process.
The theory of natural selection was how finches in the Galapagos
Islands started out as one common species, but evolved into many
different types of birds in reaction to their environments. only
the most favorable traits were passed on through the generations.
my art project parallels this ideal, in that it starts out with
five base works of art and evolves to form the final works of art.
the artworks are combined through various steps, and each time only
the most aesthetic traits are passed on. once the artwork has evolved
through several generations, the resulting piece is a complex artwork
that embodies only the most aesthetic components of the original
pieces of art.
