Marina Gutierrez’s Fashion Genes Magazine looks at the subject of genetic engineering through an interactive book-like format.  The structure’s hand-made quality underscores the sense of experimentation, and the use of aluminum suggests its connection to a laboratory. The collage elements of the “pages” relate examples of experiments with animals, genetic engineering and cloning.
