We are all prophets of our DNA in a world of burgeoning AI and accelerating genetic research. We all share 99+% of the same DNA. This exhibition and the accompanying book suggest fresh perspectives for achieving societal harmony. Chapters 1 and 2 present one-of-a-kind figure paintings paired in diptych format and Constructs using found objects, which create a visual dialogue with viewers. Chapter 3 supplies further works of art by Mark Gould to showcase his feelings about the process and the association between his artwork and his audience.

​

Other notations throughout the book describe Gould’s interaction with art, tools, and materials as well as his message to represent our genetically shared attributes to achieve greater empathy.
