Evolution

Ultra-mutation

Evolution is not an option, but rather a non-heterogeneous event that leads to biological mutation and social upheavals. A disorder that might result in a transition or a devastating disassociation. Evolution, in its common definition, is a (genetics) mutation, resulting in displacement of generations, and biological and physiological evolution. Such transformations, which create changes in the structure and behaviors’ characteristics, would consequently alter the social infrastructures in different areas. 

Because the general concept of universe is not outside the human perspective or the human environment, referring such concept to the subjective and/or objective aspects would only be acceptable through the artists’ point of view. Still, imagining and exhibiting such event seems to be fruitless and complicated, rather than impossible. For, this concept is far greater than it actually looks. In the process of creating the final production and the resulted phenomena, the event or happening seems to be more practical regarding such event at the back of the mind, which in turn, includes all individual and social events and approaches of the past, present and future. 

Practicing such definition in a visual language that could be displayed in public would of course be a hardship, but is not impossible. The final product, might be an evolution by itself, or in other words, influential for the evolution.
