The Virtual insemination series consists of five paintings. These paintings are titled Fusion, Embryo, Flower, Path, and Capsule. All works are painted on canvas. The large painting is stretched on a wooden stretcher. It does not need to be framed. The other four paintings need to be framed in passe-partouts and frames, as they are not stretched on stretcher bars due to their small size. All paintings can be hung together in any part of the room or separately. All examples are shown in the photos.
In a space where biology is no longer tied to the body, the very act of birth loses its natural significance and becomes a surreal gesture. Here, fertilization does not take place in the silence of anatomy; it is born in the light of cold screens, where pixels pulsate, each one representing a possibility. The digital interface becomes the womb, and choice becomes the sperm, seeking not an egg, but consent. In this world, life is not conceived — it is constructed, and each click is a brushstroke on the invisible canvas of genetics.
The body, which was once necessary for the emergence of new life, is now merely an observer of this process. It dissolves into algorithms that calculate, evaluate, and select the most aesthetic combinations for a potential being. Virtual fertilization no longer has anything to do with intimacy—it is closer to a mixture of various social acts, including material and spiritual masks of the face. Parenthood becomes the role of curators who stand above the laboratory where embryos exist as ideas before becoming flesh.
Fear and excitement mix together. For the first time, a person sees themselves not as a continuer of the family line, but as a creator capable of bringing life into being beyond pain, flesh, and chance. But along with this comes an alarming question: if birth is transformed into a digital ritual, will it have a soul? Can an embryo that appeared as a file find its way to the feeling of "I am" as deeply as one that came through blood and breath?
All paintings will be securely packaged. In particular, in transparent films so that moisture does not get in. Then in cardboard and bubble wrap. Then in polyfoam and again in strong cardboard. Glued on top of the label that everything is fragile.
