Jaq Chartier brings art and science together with very attractive results. The studio is her laboratory and she uses stains, acrylic gels and spray paint in images that resemble DNA representation.

“I bury colors under whiteness, setting up little tests which induce the stains to reestablish themselves in ways that reveal their hidden nature. It’s like feeling my way through a white fog and hoping for something unexpected to come into focus” she says. She is currently showing at Morgan Lehman Gallery in New York and you can see more images on her website
