DNA 11: From life comes art

Posted on August 11, 2005 Under Art

I’ve seen this make the rounds over the past few weeks, and I really like what I see. DNA 11 is a service that creates an abstract and original piece of artwork from a simple sample of your DNA. The work starts at $390 for an 18×24″ and the largest size they offer is a 36×54″. You simply fill out a few questions, and send them a small sample of your saliva in a provided test tube. (The quickest and easiest way to get a sample of your DNA). There are 7 different styles to choose from– as far as color hues. Of course each artwork will come across as completely original, a unique genetic fingerprint. I can’t think of a more inventive way for original and “limited” edition artwork. Each peace is guaranteed unique, unless of course you have an identical twin. When asked “who is the artist”, you can say with quite certainty “I am”. The folks at DNA 11 were recently commissioned by Absolut Vodka to create a custom art piece– way to go guys!
