Replicating Genetic Information

The diagram shows genetic information retained in polymers that have reversible main bonding. Certain repetitive markings are seen throughout the series of artworks. THese are related to transferring elements in nature such as DNA. DNA is the only gene in nature that can copy or code itself. It is self-replicating. Intrinsic in this idea is a cubular three-dimensional puzzle called 'Artists Block' which is presently being patented. On the left is a mirrored image.
