Doug Crocco, Mass, 2004, colored pencil on paper, 24 x 19 inches

Undifferentiated tissue: growth without a plan, life before it has agreed to become anything in particular. The most honest possible portrait of a cultured organism.

Drawn with the same care a botanical illustrator gives a named species, which is the discomfort. A specimen diagram implies the thing has been identified, and this one has not.
