      Artist : Michael Clapper

       

      These abstract steel sculptures represent humanity. The inspiration came from the 23rd chromosome. One sculpture depicts the 23rd in an XY configuration and other is an XX configuration. Consequently one refers to Man and the other Woman. The colored band patterns on the sculpture resemble the band patterns seen while looking at the configuration of the 23rd chromosome under a microscope.
