Brief Description

Inspired by a fluorescence microscopy image from laboratory experiments, this oil painting represents healthy human lung cells. The white lines highlight the contact points between the cells, known as adherens junctions, where the protein beta-catenin, also called the moonlight protein, is located. The artwork reveals the simultaneously simple and complex structure of human cells, emphasizing the fascinating organisation of the microscopic world.
