Illustration for the KIAS Webzine HORIZON: “Are Life Phenomena Regulated by Stochastic Processes?”

This piece aims to symbolically represent the process of repairing mismatched DNA base pairs.

Focusing on the concept of “restoration,” I visualized the correction of DNA errors in the form of a mosaic.
Scattered puzzle pieces gradually come together to form a complete whole once again.

The sections with contrasting colors represent the mismatched or erroneous base pairs.
