About Cancer Assassin Illustration
Kunstneren forsøgte at skabe et portræt af det dramatiske øjeblik, hvor en Natural Killer T-celle dødsgreb overvinder en kræftcells forsvar og mindes om et øjeblik menneskeheden ønsker. Cytotoksiske naturlige dræber-T-celler er kræftmorder, der inducerer kræftceller til at gennemgå en programmeret celledød kendt som apoptose. Natural Killer T-celler genkender specifikke steder på overfladen af kræftceller kaldet antigener, binder til dem og frigiver biokemiske proteiner, der danner porer i kræftcelleens membran og specifikt inducerer kræftcellen til at ødelægge.

- Unique Properties
- People fighting cancer often want to know how to visualize fighting back. This is one visualization capturing the moment of cancer cell death, and the victory of the body's natural immune defenses, Natural Killer T cells. An entire branch of medical research focuses on amplifying and strengthening Natural Killer T cells' effectiveness.

- Research
- The artist researched the morphology of Killer T cells, cancer cells, and Killer T cells and cancer cells in a death struggle, by studying electron micrographs and written research. She then created 3D models of a Killer T cell, cancer cell, fracture explosion, and cell debris using Cinema 4D, on a Mac. The rest of the digital painting was completed by hand work of drawing and painting in Photoshop using a stylus and tablet, on a Mac.
