Contrary to popular belief, beauty is not only skin deep: there is plenty to fascinate right beneath the surface. This is certainly true for artist Jo Berry, whose latest work illuminates the exquisite cellular workings of the human body. For Berry, the intricate live human cells are both a fascinating subject and the next great medium. In her groundbreaking new project “Hijacking Natural Systems,” Berry captures the the art of biological processes – beauty that is, quite literally, on a cellular level. “The project is celebrating the human body, the use of new technology, the collaboration between science and art,” Berry recently stated. “[It] also gives the public the opportunity to see art in a non-traditional setting.” The goal of this particular series of works is to engage and inform the general public, through the dual-disciplined lens of art and science.
