| Fourteenth in the Genomic Works sequence, Eleanor Roosevelt unfolds as a layered field of ambiguity and presence. A stylized portrait appears near the center—soft, composed, rendered in muted pinks and greens. It doesn’t claim identity; it offers a signal.
The Tarot card is the Seven of Cups—symbol of multiplicity, illusion, and emotional drift. To its right, a stained glass band refracts the field into fragments. Beyond that, a terrain of
camo-toned handprints—the artist's—interrupts the rhythm with embodied assertion. It’s not a gesture of authorship, but of participation. A mark within the genome.
The canvas doesn’t explain. It holds space for resonance, for choice, for the quiet tension between abstraction and touch.
Eleanor Roosevelt becomes a site of reflection—where the viewer is invited not to decode, but to inhabit.
