Jane Tagg
by Pantocrator Gallery
Location: Pantocrator Gallery
Artist(s): Jane TAGG
Date: 1 Aug - 30 Sep 2015

Jane Tagg's works focuses on the changing environment which reflects technological developments and human population growth, resulting in the destruction of land, the extinction and endangerment of animals and genetic deformities. In this negative reflexivity, the very same scientific progress that led to the destruction of our world has ironically created the idea of "The frozen zoo", where stem cell regeneration is being considered by scientists as a future method of regrowth of limbs and organs and for the re-generation of endangered species. Drawn from scientific diagrams, MRI scans, repair and re-growth treatments, this work focuses on (re)imagined hybrid species in both the animal and human kingdoms whilst raising the question as to their viability and of the ethics involved. The birth of a reflexive world of new hybrids is illustrated by the composite imagery being transformed into futuristic forms born from kaleidoscopic imagery representing cell growth.
