DNA is the key to life. We all begin our lives with one set of instructions. These instructions are passed down to us from our parents in the form of DNA. DNA makes us who we are.

THE MEANING BEHIND DNA ART

Yonder Biology highlights unique regions of DNA to reveal the subtle differences and similarities that each and everyone's DNA encodes. While these characteristics are visualized in the form of abstract patterns they represent the deeper insight of who we are.
