Rob Kessler captures the intricate details of plants that cannot be seen by the naked eye. Kessler captures incredibly magnified pictures in his Canopy series. The artist uses scanning electron microscopy to get the zoomed in photos, which he then colors by hand. My Modern Met has more details:
Despite his penchant for micrography, Kessler is actually a professor at Central Saint Martins and Chair of Arts, Design & Science at University of the Arts London. His current creative practice is based around the desire for collaboration between artists and scientists. Before producing the Canopy series of micrographs, Kessler worked with botanists at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew to examine the artistic potential of microscopic images of plants. The British artist finds that interdisciplinary art, which exchanges different ideas and perspectives, reflects the modern era.
