What Is NanoArt?
“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
My Most Recent NanoArt
My Nano-based imagery combined with mixed-media collage presents to the viewer both a macrocosmic and microcosmic view of the universe simultaneously. Through asserting the connections between these worlds, the power of regeneration of awareness occurs. This awareness emerges when the individual realizes the strength and connection one has to the universe. The active area of the work connects with the outer realms of the piece through movements of mark-making suggesting both assertions as well as connection to the whole.
These images by Jan Kirstein Rigor are available as giclee prints in many sizes and presentation options at Fine Art America.
Special Note:
