“Beautiful Freaks/Nature's Bastards” expands on Lester's previous work exploring the ramifications — good and bad — of genetic manipulation. She has been “doing plants” for about 12 years, but the inspiration for “Imitatio Perfecta,” a series of six carbon drawings, goes further back. Lester, who previously created a piece using carbon paper for a show in 1995, liked the implications of using the now-quaint method of duplication in relation to the underlying theme of her current work.
