aNewDomain.net — According to The Collection in London, Luke Jerram’s Swine Flu Glass Microbiology artwork is now in its permanent collection. Check out a gallery collection of Luke Jerram’s amazing microbiology artwork of pathogens, below.
Luke Jerram’s pathogen glass sculptures — 3D representations of such pathogens as H1, Swine Flu and Bird Flu — are bold and beautiful. And because they’re glass and colorless, they better represent such colorless pathogens than other artists’ multi-colored renderings of these microscopic dangers. Here’s a gallery comprising 10 of Luke Jerram’s most-arresting pathogen glass artworks, from Swine Flu to HIV to a T4 bacteriophage. Dangerous and beautiful.
Here’s Luke’s glass sculpture of Malaria, below.
