Deadly beauty

  • Anna Legenka

2018 Photoprint 1 m*1 m These photos are made by a microscope with a 200x zoom of the cancer tumor of the different people. There was a making of a picture of a thin cut of the tissue, that was excised during surgery for diagnostic and study of disease. These cuts have some special colors for the opportunity of their study, that is why they are so vibrant. If you will not think about the nature of these pictures and focus on their visuality, you can say that they are very "artistic". Each of them is a sophisticated abstract painting. It is very beautiful and horrible at the same time. They hide inside of the human lives, tragedy, pain, fear of death, despair, big financial problems and the most important - believing in life and victory over death.
