What if you could turn a moment of pure science and art into a visual spectacle? This image shows a unique view of crystal structures created by elements dissolved in a mixture of alcohol and water. Flowing the mixture out over a sheet of glass and then allowing it to dry created beautiful patterns barely perceptible to the naked eye.
Using a light box and polarisation filters, hidden colours were revealed, and macro photography with intermediate rings brought details into focus. What you see looks like an alien landscape or a futuristic fragment of the Milky Way. The play of colours and abstract forms evoke associations with light art, but also with natural processes that we cannot normally observe.
This image is more than a work of art; it is an invitation to imagination. Whether you think of galaxies, abstract paintings or microscopic worlds, the interpretation is up to you. Hang this wall decoration and be inspired by the unearthly beauty and mysterious depths of a world normally hidden.
