“Dewey-Hagborg […] extracts DNA from each piece of evidence she collects and enters this data into a computer program, which churns out a model of the face of the person who left the hair, fingernail, cigarette or gum behind. […] From those facial models, she then produces actual sculptures using a 3D printer.”
An example of unethical art practice
She claims to be able to reconstruct faces from DNA, which is impossible with the state of the art, and she even sets up her performance to be unverifiable by using strangers’ DNA, when she could easily verify her method by using known DNA.
She’s a charlatan, and just look how much exposure she gets by gullible curators and commenters.
