There is nothing more abstract than nature, and in this sense, art sometimes does not have to stray far to be bold and have amazing impact. See more images in the post…

These are not photos: photography implies the presence of light, which is not the case for these advanced microscopes where the images are “created” by particles with much higher energy than the photons (the particles of light). The instruments that capture nano images have higher depth of field that optical microscopes and as a result render true three-dimensional images at much higher resolution. This post presents some truly phenomenal images of everyday objects as we have never seen them before.

“NanoArt is a new art discipline at the art-science-technology intersections. It features nanolandscapes (molecular and atomic landscapes which are natural structures of matter at molecular and atomic scales) and nanosculptures (structures created by scientists and artists by manipulating matter at molecular and atomic scales using chemical and physical processes). These structures are visualized with powerful research tools like scanning electron microscopes and atomic force microscopes and their scientific images are captured and further processed by using different artistic techniques to convert them into artworks showcased for large audiences.” — Cris Orfescu
