Leigh Anne Lester uses complex, intricate techniques to craft works that focus on the “place between the genesis of genetic modification and its aftereffects.” Her drawings are layers of semi-transparent drafting film, each with a historical botanical image drawn on it. The drafting film's transparency lets each botanical line optically blend with the next layer. Elements of each plant mix and tangle their visual attributes, intermingling disparate species of flora. Floating cells are layered with graphite drawings of separate distorted offspring plants, their color drained, implying a cellular, morphological struggle for resolution.
