These are the final pieces that I will submit to the final degree show. I am very pleased with the outcome. My intension was to create a way to make deadly viruses and diseases appealing, tactile and beautiful. I like the technique of white ink on white paper, gives the feeling of the pieces that idea of a petri dish, (the idea of silent killers, barely visible but there and waiting. The colour is also very 'hospital-ly'. The Diamond dust used also ties the whole thing together too, in that the whole thing looks like a chemistry experiment. The dust looks like a reactions and the crystals are the product.
I thing the whole thing is so much more than 'pretty', but has meaning on many different levels.
