Continuing on from the theme of science and art that inspired Julien Picaud, I introduce to you photographer Fabien Oefner and his collection - Millefiori. In my opinion, art is always about inspiration and experimentation and here Oefner says he was inspired by science and technology blogs as well as the work of Japanese artist Sachiko Kodama. He uses watercolours mixed with ferrofluids (a magnetic, viscous solution). He says that photography is a beautiful thing because you can capture tiny, precious moments that happen in a second and preserve them forever, this is true if you are an amazingly talented photographer. My photos sadly never look as good as the image I am trying to capture in real life!
Here are some examples of some of his fantastic multi coloured, magnetic, seaweed brains and his website so you can see his other work. Apparently he's also going to be speaking at the TEDx event at my university next year! Will definitely have to get tickets for that. http://www.fabianoefner.com/ (There is also an awesome video of the ferrofluid being combined with the watercolours on there!)
