Innate Immune System Activation

The inspiration for this piece came from a rough concept shared with me by the lab I was working with. Over a series of discussions we worked together to make it clearer and more accessible to a broader audience, while retaining all vital scientific information. In the intersection of art and science, clarity of form and visual interest must find a delicate balance, which I worked to achieve in this piece.

Artist Statement: 

This diagram demonstrates how hypertensive symptoms activate the innate immune system, and how the innate immune system, in turn, affects the body.
