The aesthetic concept of mimesis has contributed to the constant construction and enrichment of the theoretical and critical narrative of Art History. The significance of the term is such that around it the attempts of the models to be independent have been justified, giving way to the avant-garde movements at the beginning of the 20th century. In Contemporary Art, and given the preponderance of the subjective as one of the values of Postmodernism, it would seem that what mimesis has to contribute as a validating resource in the artist-world relationship is limited to the framework of an outdated discussion. In this context, knowledge and tools from science and technology have enabled, during the 1980s, the generative-evolutionary art of the English artist William Latham. The aesthetic discourse of his work is constructed from the imitation of natural processes, specifically, of genetics and evolutionary biology, which invites to rethink the meaning of mimesis. This implies a review of the semantic-historical order of the term until its undeniable impact as one of the legitimizing narratives of Art, necessarily including the possibilities of objective representation from inter or multidisciplinarity, which distinguish the artist's work. Latham's corpus of works, as a case study, shows the manifestation of mimesis in its procedural dimension, an implication that would not only have an impact on its terminological completeness, but also on the way of facing and reflect about the Art itself.
