DNA is allover in plant tissue, humans, animals and its cells. The compact structure of DNA is packaged as chromosomes that are present in special stages of dividing cells. This process of dividing living material leads to new forms of organisms in every step.  
You can find genetic material / DNA allover in plants, humans, animals and its cells. The structure of DNA is packaged as chromosomes that are present in special stages of dividing cells. This process of dividing living material leads to new forms of organisms in every step.

Stop and Go Signals (e. g. from walking by) changes the organisms in their shape, movement and aesthetics. The interaction in front of the screen reveals different aesthetics of the Chromosome stage.

I am going to isolate chromosomes of plants and attach them to human models and make experiments with the shape and movement of the genetic material and the human organisms. In the exhibition the visitor is another instance that influences the performance.  
I am going to isolate cells of plants and work with the different stages of the cells. Cells need company to grow. In the exhibition the visitor gets in contact with the genetic material through sensors.
