We create Art with the help of a Scanning Electron Microscope
Art opens up when you look at the world of the very smallest with the scanning electron microscope. Choosing the right details of the microscopic scenery and -in post production- a sensitive coloring, simple black and white scientific images may turn into impressive works of art. We lift up Microphotography to art.
Scales
Artistic scanning electron microscope image of scales on a mosquito's wing. They probably serve to dampen the flight noise.
Fibers
This Micro-photograph of fibers on the surface of a Pollen from the Evening Primrose was basically made as an art piece.
Shell
Magnified 1000 times with the scanning-electron microscope this diatom shell presents itself as an artwork.
Rose
Did you ever imagine a roses blossom shows such an artistic and amazing rough structure?
Since we look into the microworld with the eyes of photographers, aesthetic is our highest goal
eye of science can look back on almost three decades of experience in preparation, photography and digital imaging in scanning electron microscopy. When creating microphotographs, we always attach great importance to aesthetics. The aim is the highest possible artistic representation while maintaining scientific authenticity. In addition to scientific publishers and popular scientific journals, our microscopic images are shown in museums and art galleries. Via the menu on top you will find examples of our work on electron microscopy, as well as light microscopy and underwater photography, grouped by topic.
