Artist Statement
INFUSION by Marco Antonio Hernández is from a series of works created in 2015 for an exhibit titled Blood Lines: A Visual Journey Into Cancer. It is a 7′ tall kinetic sculpture that was produced in response to my experiences while in the hospital receiving treatment for leukemia.
The representation of the skeletal figure was used because the cancer, which I had, was caused by a genetic malfunction that originated in the bone marrow. Parflex tubing, steel, steel wire, and green fluorescent fluid were all used to give life to this piece.
