Phenotype Bardo

"A concept derived from Tibetan Buddhism, bardo is that difficult passage in space and time between life and death and rebirth in spiritual terms. Within the context of Macri’s specific portrait here, he is alluding to the transference from one state of being or identity into the other. The living body entering and reconfiguring itself in another, the transition from one identity to another while retaining aspects of the previous life as it puts on the attire of the new."
