YOUR DNA Map As Home Deco

DNA 11 commissioned by ABSOLUT VODKA to create custom art piece. Andy Warhol would be proud. DNA11 creates unique DNA portraits through an extraordinary combination of science and art. The end result is a group of different sized pieces of DNA (unique per individual), which we "run" on a gel, such that each strand of different sized DNA is separate. The DNA is then stained with a fluorescent dye and illuminated by UV light, which then glows, giving off a fluorescent signal. A special camera captures the image which is then digitally enhanced, cropped, color adjusted, adding colors and filter effects. Each piece is carefully processed and is then printed as a Giclee fine art piece. Each piece is then visually inspected and signed in the back by the artists at DNA 11, ensuring authenticity. The result is a high-end piece of art that can never be replicated, and is as unique as you are - When asked “who is the artist?” the answer is simple: you are.

Nice art, but way too expensive. There's an alternative that offers
you highest quality, lowest prices and maximum flexibility. The
company Geneportrait Unique Personalized DNA-Art Genetic Portraits creates beautiful and scientifically-solid genetic portraits from a sample of your own DNA. They can include multiple individuals (people/pets) in one single portrait which makes the experience much less expensive and more meaningful: You can directly compare your fingerprint with your loved ones', generating both a unique sense of closeness and individuality. The artwork is delivered on CD giving you total
freedom of choice to handle your work of art and save money in
overall costs. Furthermore, you will preserve your DNA-art portrait for a lifetime.
