Atomic Art Surroundism by David Mankey
July, 2009 by David Mankey (Drawings, Essays)
The tiniest parts of the elements of material reality are called atoms. Although atoms are very small (there are many trillions in a thumbnail) the Scanning Tunnelling Microscope detects individual atoms and their arrangements on the surfaces of substance.
This hand-drawn work celebrates the discovery of silicon’s elemental atomic lattice structure as revealed by the microscope. Dots represent atoms in a flattened perspective.
Most of Earth’s rocky crust, sands and soils are made of silicon-oxides. Functional, aristic and scientific uses of the element silicon’s amazing properties remain the cores of human social and technologic achievements past and present.
You are the seer ~ atoms are the seen. Everything is atomic art. your for atomic peace and love.
ATOMIC ART SURROUND IS Mmmmm ~ NEW DIMENSIONS IN ART
