The Mitochondrial Art Collection

These works formed part of two exhibitions on mitochondrial visual representation:

Mitochondria & Energy Conversion
MRC Mitochondria Biology Unit, Wellcome Trust, at Adembrooks Hospital, Cambridge, UK (June 2010)

The Beauty of Mitochondria
Obergurgl University Centre, Obergurgl, Austria (October 2010)

These works now belong to either the Mitochondrial Physiology Society (MiPArt and www.mitophysiology.org) or the MRC Mitochondria Biology Unit (www.mrc-mbu.cam.ac.uk)


You can find additional mitochondria images in the main gallery

Altmann's Bioblasts - The four seasons

The first man to discover mitochondria- the elementary organisms of life.
 

Mitochondria fingerprint I
 

ATPase congregation
 

Mitochondrial fingerprint II
A unique distinctive print, the mitochondrial DNA can tell species from closely related species.
ATP synthase congregation
A closer look at the machines themselves, energy producing structures seen after much manipulation.

Energy fields & Energy fields closer

The hills of membranes are productive fields, with energy production units planted around. An elegy of a wind farm that moves protons to create ATP.
