Artistic Ceratium Lineatum
Working with samples of Certatium Lineatum provided by the Menden-Deuer lab at the University of Rhode Island, I digitally "captured" swimming specimens using a microscope and video camera in the Edna Lawrence Nature Lab at the Rhode Island School of Design.
The backgrounds and color shifts serve to make the images more lively, and to give viewers the sense of the complex environment of the ocean waters that are home to these microscopic plankton.
Exhibited:
2013 solo exhibition: Kraft Center for Jewish Life, Columbia/Barnard, New York NY February
2013 Artspace, City-wide Open Studios, New Haven CT, October
Artistic Images: Favella - Heterosigma
The experience of transforming the image capture served as a kind of drawing exercise.
As I worked I became familiar with the forms of the Favella and Heterosigma akashiwo. The next step was to integrate them into a series of creative compositions.
