Neuron Stain

Piece description from the artist

Neuron Stains are inspired by the drawings of Santiago Ramón y Cajal, the father of modern neuroscience. Cajal drew neurons by hand while looking at them through a microscope. He was an artist and scientist, recognizing the power of imagery to reveal inner truths.
