Leigh Anne Lester's work investigates the birth of genetic modification and its after effects. In her work, she uses meticulous layering and collaging to mimic the distorting effect of genetic modification. "[Her] personal interpretation of genetic modification paired with masterful draftsmanship and the incorporation of other media has brought a 21st century aesthetic to the long established botanical drawing tradition." - Patricia Ruiz-Healy, Ph.D.
