Over het werk
Life-Series 1: Cells are divided into two main classes, initially defined by whether they contain a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells (bacteria) lack a nuclear envelope; eukaryotic cells have a nucleus in which the genetic material is separated from the cytoplasm. It appears that life first emerged at least 3.8 billion years ago, approximately 750 million years after Earth was formed. Because cells originated in a sea of organic molecules, they were able to obtain food and energy directly from their environment. But such a situation is self-limiting, so cells needed to evolve their own mechanisms for generating energy and synthesizing the molecules necessary for their replication. I tried in artistic way to capture this in my work with LOVE!
