In this project I chose to explore the concept of decomposition, or breaking things down to their components. I investigated this idea as it relates to the human body by creating a digital composite of the chemical elements within the body, in various states and molecular structures. I wanted to represent humanity’s physical oneness with natural structures which we have an impulse to disassociate from entirely. Aesthetically, I approached this concept differently from my Feather composite (grid assignment), choosing to create a design oriented image as apposed to a more enigmatic, naturalistic environmental scene.
