- Why did you create this work?
Idea started with a question. Who a scientist is? I believe scientists are very similar to crime scene investigators. An investigator would look for evidences in order to find the criminal. Researcher carry out the exact same task but in a world that is microscopic (cell). Fingerprints are best to describe investigation scene hence I wanted to imagine what a cell would look inside a fringerprint. - How were your illustrations used?
This illustration was used on the T-shirt of a biological research institute in India. The t-shirt illustration also had a magnifying glass surrounding and focusing the cellular fingerprint, depicting scientific investigation. - What materials and techniques did you use?
I used Procreate to create this illustration. - Was this project commissioned?
