About the Artwork: "Physiologic Selection #2" is a striking exploration of life’s fragility and resilience. By layering fine lace over a deep black base, Charlotte Yudis creates a constellation of forms that appear both botanical and microscopic—like seeds or cells drifting in space. This piece exemplifies her ability to blur the lines between analytical observation and ethereal beauty, making the scientific feel deeply poetic.
 
About the Artist: Charlotte Weiner Yudis (1941–2009) was a Philadelphia-based printmaker who famously bridged the poetic and the scientific. A former medical technician, she was a pioneer in manipulating biological imagery into expressionist art. Her work has been praised by the Inquirer for its "perfect equilibrium between fact and imagination" and is a staple of Mid-Atlantic contemporary art history.
