Artist Captures Beauty of the Brain
Greg Dunn, a trained neuroscientist, has spent hours examining nerve cells under the microscope. Within the complex networks of neuron branches, he discovered unexpected beauty.
CMU’s John Pyles collaborated with Dunn on his latest project, “Self Reflected,” which will join the permanent collection at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. The artwork features images and data from Pyles’ own brain.
