Small Worlds: the art of the invisible

October 2007 - April 2008
Museum of the History of Science

"Immerse yourself in the world of the microscopic. Sumptuous microbe-patterned wallpaper and curtains, gilt framed microscopic slides, quirky audio poems and animations - all feature in a stunning new exhibition inspired by over 10,000 microscopic slides in the collection of the Museum of the History of Science.

The exhibition is a collaboration with artist Heather Barnett and poet Will Holloway. Together they have created a striking and innovative body of work in image, animation and poetry."
