A series of paintings created with the whitest of white material, titanium dioxide, and the blackest of black material, carbon nanotubes. The painting depicts a fertile, pregnant woman in an expressive style. The gestation of human life, via the automatic organization of cells into increasingly complex and dense forms which finally culminate in the creation of a conscious being, is an example of the natural process of negentropy. The painting, highly organized (representational, in an art context, and from its materials) and differentiated, discusses the fear of entropy, the final grey state of disorganization which we are inexorably headed towards, and the possibility of creative expression as a justified counter-force.
