Her work focuses on how artificial procreation leads us towards an artificial evolution of mankind and its consequences. She draws her inspiration from the issues of human definition and human selection.

The phenomenom of serendipity, the fortuitous discovery of something one was not initially looking for, is a well-known phenomenom to scientists, but also fully relevant to art. Prune Nourry, in her art, explores gender selection and the historical preference for boys in certain cultures, but also raisesthe more general question of how to define the human being. With the infinite possibilities offered by science, what will tomorrow's world look like ?
