About this title

Synopsis:

With an approach that turns science into art, Roberto Dabdoub captures beauty under the microscope. He applies scientific methods to a creative spirit and unveils art in remarkable and unexpected places.

From the Back Cover:

A leaf: a sunlit highway through a green spring forest. Hair exposed to a coloring solution: a single starfish on the dark, sandy ocean's floor. Cholesterol: falling snowflakes on a purple sky.
In Micro Art, Roberto Dabdoub uncovers a world of wonder. Using a microscope and objects both familiar and bizarre, he captures images of beauty by breaking what is around him down to its smallest level. Dabdoub mixes science and photography, through the revolutionary process of photomicrography, to unveil vivid symphonies of color.
