鈥楥丑颈尘别谤补鈥�:听 This work is by Graphic Arts student Rebecca Higgins.听 She says this about the piece:听 鈥淢y work is a visual representation of the fears that many people may have about genetic engineering – where fantasy and fiction have influenced what is imagined to be possible. My contemporary Chimera is an exaggeration of the engineered monsters seen in films and games which are actually not genetically possible in the real world.听 The piece itself is made from realism drawings of different real animals, then pieced together to make something impossible, and displayed in a fairly believable听way.鈥�
