Natural Defenses: Tornado II
18" x 21" monoprint
$800

This whole series comes from the scientific theory that the planet Earth is a living organism. Taking this thought further, if the Earth is an organism, then surely, the human race has become an infection on its skin.

What I've done here is come up with an illustrated immune system to fight these damaging intrusions. I'm using pre-existing elements that occur in nature and amplifying them to fight as white blood cells.

I've put on certain characteristics to make this immune system more aggressive; such as shark's teeth on the Tornado. Here the Tornado is attacking a nuclear power plant.
