Biostructure IV

Jason Hopkins is working in the future evolution of humans, he combines geometrical and organic shapes creating interesting bodies with structures and tumorous forms. These pieces are very impressive, I like the good work on the skin texture, you can find in his blog some cool textures and tutorials.
“I am fascinated by mankind’s pursuit of ‘perfection’. Through the instruments of science we strive to categorize, understand, rearrange and ultimately tame the natural world around us. My sketches are explorations of possible genetic futures where mankind has achieved this perfection, where science has ironed out the inadequacies of being human.” See more;
Jason Hopkins trabaja en la futura evolución de los seres humanos, combina formas geométricas y orgánicas creando cuerpos con interesantes estructuras y formas similares a enormes tumores. Me gusta el buen trabajo sobre la textura de la piel, en su blog se puede encontrar algunas texturas y tutoriales interesantes.
“Me fascina la búsqueda en la “perfección” de la humanidad. A través de los instrumentos de la ciencia nos esforzamos por clasificar, comprender, ordenar y, finalmente, dominar el mundo natural que nos rodea. Mis dibujos son exploraciones de posibles futuras genéticas donde la humanidad alcanza esta perfección, donde la ciencia subsana las deficiencias del ser humano.”

Jason Hopkins develops a compelling digital art work entitled Abhominal that illustrates a beautiful hybridization of geometrical normative structures with a tumorous organic flesh. His “bodies” are as much striking to me that it obviously evokes the hyperactive use of uncontrolled topological surfaces in current architecture. Jason Hopkins proposes a much more interesting vision of not only a surface, but also its content, the flesh, which is not without recalling Marcos Cruz’s interest (see his manifesto for boiteaoutils).
However, what I just wrote is only my interpretation as an architect and I wanted to have Jason’s “version” of his own work which is the very short text that follows:
“I am fascinated by mankind’s pursuit of ‘perfection’. Through the instruments of science we strive to categorize, understand, rearrange and ultimately tame the natural world around us. My sketches are explorations of possible genetic futures where mankind has achieved this perfection, where science has ironed out the inadequacies of being human.”

Jason Hopkins, inglese, è l’autore di queste particolarissime illustrazioni realizzate in 3-D.
Abhominal, una parola arcaica che vuole dire “inumano”, è il titolo di questo progetto di esplorazione della forma umana. Le “biostrutture” create da Hopkins sono una fusione di forme astratte e patterns geometrici, architettonici e organici.
