The series tells a fictional story about the transformation of organic and inorganic matter. Erythra is the name of the fictional organism, which undergoes endless transformations. The generated images are then manually edited by me.

Inspired by the historical archiving and preservation of organic material in museum and scientific contexts, I use epoxy resin to "freeze" or archive the image on its substrate. This method makes the texture of the material more visible, and the trapped air bubbles can be interpreted as escaping gases within a developing atmosphere.

The work Erythra Studies is a variation of the project Decolonized Mars. For this piece, a custom algorithm—a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)—was trained on images from my work Decolonized Mars, along with visualizations of bacteria and organisms. The GAN learns from the provided dataset and generates new visual material. This process serves as a metaphor for the "dataset" of living beings, with the GAN functioning as a metaphor for the gene-editing tool CRISPR-Cas9.
