I used pen and olive oil for this drawing and photographed it over a light source to echo the idea of looking at cells through a mircroscope.

Here is the documented progress of the cells on day 4 after the experiment out lined in the video below. As you can see the cells have expanded over a large area of space and are thriving. This photo was taken through an inverted microscope.

Biotech Artist for the Day


I went to a workshop in the Science Gallery as part of their new exhibition; Visceral. They had a bio lab set up on the ground floor where the workshop was held. The curators of the exhibition gave demonstrations on how to work with tissue cultures and then the rest of us donned the white lab coats and had a go ourselves. It was a fascinating experience to work as a biotech Artist.
