Microbioart is the avant-garde that merges art and microbiology to create a pictorial discourse.
"Its been a few years since I started to investigate and deepening in the subject that I call now “Microbioart”, collecting samples of leaves, grass, dirt, water, stems, peel, insects, and other nature elements to observe them at many structural levels just for the mere satisfaction of the aesthetics, this wonderful micro-world that shows another universe different and very similar at the same time from our habituated panorama."
The components, forms and colors that nature contains can be very inspirational, a very dear friend to creativity, but to be immerse in the microscopical structure of plants is a way to travel and read a language that can’t be written or spoken. It’s something that transmits the essentials of life, its complexity.
In order to break the monotony of the interaction with nature is very important to dive further and deeper, not to just see the tree, but to penetrate its cortex, not to just walk through the branches but to observe its conformation.
It’s an opportunity to waken a bit more to this world, not just be in it.
The very first time I had the opportunity to observe the microscopic world it was then when I realize the importance of taking care of it. Every single move we make is a colossal impact to our world and in order to understand how to treat it or at least respect it is to comprehend it.
Through art it is possible to show anybody the essence of this whole idea, because of the impact that aesthetics can make, because what we see is what it’s going to pull us, motivate us, or even repel us, it’s a kind of fluidity in which the world relies on.
My major inspiration it always have been nature and science, nature is our most brilliant example of creation, the most accurate exemplar of beauty. And science is the transcendental tool, the one thing that allows us to study the wonders of nature, that makes humanity different from other animals. I consider myself a transdisciplinary artist, I’m always relaying in matters such as biology, technology or medicine to complement my work. Ever since I started to make my research on histology and information relative to the aesthetics I was creating, not just for the beauty of these structures but because of its function in nature, I started to feel that I was not only creating as an artist, I was offering a different way to get close to plants, some knowledge about these beautiful structures.
