Experiments
I decided to map patterns with a microscope myself. I started taking random pieces of material around me to put under my microscope. I realised that my microscope was not good enough to map most objects on the micro level I intended to. After trying everything around me I started using the microscope on myself, I realised then that the microscope worked very well on my own face and hands. The patterns I saw through the microscope were suprising, and then I realised that if i wanted to document patterns of something I see regularly but not in that way, that it would have to be myself.
The first results of the microscope on myself:
Mouth
Cheeck
Eye
Hair
Thumb
Knuckle
Arm
Wimpers

Microscope
The microscope I use is from National Geographic and goes up to 350x zoom.
Drawing Patterns
With the microscopic pictures of my face and hands I started tracing the patterns with a fineliner on transparent paper. I made a selection of the most interesting patterns.
With the patterns I just made with my fineliners I wanted to create something that would not show the patterns immediatly. I came with the idea to paint the patterns on glass. The glass has the shape like test glasses for microscopes. The paint will be glue, when the glue dries it will only show itself through a light source directed on the glass.
Inspiration
Bevshots
I felt inspired by the work from a company called BevShots, link > https://www.bevshots.com/ Their art is focused on the microscopic patterns created by alcohol. Finding patterns that exist but are not available to the human eye interest me. These are a few examples of their work:
micro image of Irish Pale Lager
micro image of English Oatmeal Bear
micro image of Tequila
micro image of Dirty Martini
micro image of Vodka Tonic
micro image of Champagne
Eckhard Völcker
Eckhard Völcker also works with microscopic patterns, he uses natural sources to explore. link> http://www.wunderkanone.de/
Test box
This was a test to see how the carved glass would do in a more spatial design, and how the light would strike on the glass.
Result
Intimate self portrait
