"The Protein Curator," sized at 130x170 cm, uses oil on canvas to depict a dynamically abstract portrait where the central figure’s face merges fluidly with the surrounding environment. This effect captures the essence of modern identity - fluid, ever-changing, and deeply interconnected with surrounding data streams symbolized by colorful molecular structures.
