I know that everyone and their mother has seen these works by now.  But what makes these pieces by artist Lisa Nilsson so incredible is the detail, thoughtful technique and observation that the rolled paper makes a beautiful representation of anatomical cross sections.  Everyone has appreciated it, even those who don’t necessarily find science and anatomy particularly interesting.  It’s this type of transcendent anatomical art that we here at Street Anatomy drool over.

If you, like me, gasped at the site of these and instantly wanted to know how she created them, head over to ArtSake for the wonderful interview with Lisa. She shares her inspiration, technique, and overall amazingness in the interview.

Anastomosis

Frank Scali Anastomosis

Illustrator, dissector, and physician, Dr. Frank Scali, created this piece inspired by the anatomical definition of anastomosis.

Scali says of his piece,

“The female portrays the superficial venous blood flow, the male depicts deep arterial blood flow. Together they form the complete circulatory system. Anastomosis is the term used in anatomy when two blood vessels connect and literally means to “open” or to “kiss.”"

A Testamanent to Hard Work

Bennett Barch Neck Anatomy tattoo color by Scott Fricke

Bennett Barch Neck Anatomy tattoo color by Scott Fricke

Gorgeous neck anatomy tattoo taken from Atlas of Anatomy by Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery.  Bennett Barch got this tattoo after spending years in medical school and residency, “I decided to get the tattoo as a symbol of the effort I put into my career.”  I think I like the line version as much as the color.  Well done!

The tattoo was done by Chicago-based tattoo artist, Scott Fricke.
