Perfluorocarbonation
Marc Quinn's "Perfluorocarbonation" is a striking oil on canvas work that explores the boundaries between the organic and the synthetic, reflecting the artist's ongoing fascination with the human body and scientific intervention. The painting's rich, luminous surface evokes a sense of suspended animation, as if life itself has been chemically altered or preserved. Quinn draws on the language of medical and biological processes to challenge viewers to consider the fragile and malleable nature of existence.
