Thirteen years after the final canvas of Phase Two, Jane Goodall reopens the genomic field with a new logic. The vertical bands remain, but they no longer behave. They bleed, drift, and dissolve at the edges. The genome is no longer segmented—it’s fluid, adaptive, and emotionally porous.


Near center, a serene face appears—blue-green, ethereal, surrounded by confetti-like dots. It’s not Goodall. It’s a placeholder. A speculative relation. A visual echo of inheritance softened by time and mutation. To the left, the Tarot card VI of Swords is rendered in vintage illustration: a man guiding a boat across still waters. It signals transition, quiet guidance, and emotional passage.


To the right, a spinal acupuncture diagram overlays a purple field—nodes and meridians threading bodily logic into the genomic system. The mutation here isn’t rupture—it’s recalibration. A signal of healing, adaptation, and internal navigation.


Jane Goodall marks a return, but not a repetition. A canvas of emotional recursion and chromatic drift, where the genome begins to dissolve its own architecture in search of something more fluid, more alive, and more attuned to healing.
