The Design

About Flora Ilustracija

Flora je fantastična ilustracija za promicanje umjetnikove kreativnosti i pripovijedanja, prikazujući cvjetanje mikrobiote probavnog trakta oplođene gromoglasnim okruženjem želuca. Cvatnja je prikazana laticama bakteroideta, bifidobakterija i enterokoka, peteljkama laktobacila i stabljika roda Enterococcus faecalis koji se stoje na stabljikama bakterije Escherichia coli. Cvijet se pojavljuje na stabljikama Clostridium-a. Bacillus Cereus, duge bakterije u obliku štapića, u stadijumu arthomitusa, pričvršćuju se vlaknima na crijevni epitel, rastu filamentno i sporuliraju.

Unique Properties
Creating a visual pun on the idea that gastric flora might be blossoming flowers in the digestive tract, the artist set out to create a flower composed of the bacteria found in the gut.
Dimensions & Packaging
17.5" x 12", 350 dpi, tiff
Tags
medical illustration, biomedical artist, visual science, pharmaceutical advertising, biotechnology advertising
Production Technology
Created using Cinema 4D, a 3D modeling program, and Photoshop on a Mac.
Design Challenge
Creating a flower that both looked like a flower, but was also easily recognized as being constructed of recognizable bacteria required a creative balance between the two.
Research
The artist researched the common bacteria, called flora, of the gut. The artist studied electron micrographs depicting these different bacteria, and created 3D models of the different bacteria. The artist arranged the 3D-modeled bacteria to construct a flower, using different bacteria for different parts of the flower. The churning gastric juices and primordial environment of the gut comprises the environment from which the flower grows. The flower springs forth from the microvilli found in the lining of the small intestine.
Inspiration
The artist is a certified medical illustrator working in the advertising and marketing of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Self promotional work created for clients, and prospective clients, is a chance to promote the artist's creativity, artistry and storytelling skills in visual science.
Project Duration
The project was in development for three weeks at the artist's studio in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, USA.
Operation Flow
The illustration is meant to be enjoyable and memorable by playing on the pun of gastric flora.
