Undeservedly infamous due to the cardiovascular diseases brought about by high levels of one of its chemical forms, “bad cholesterol”or low-density lipoproteins (LDL). However, it is unhealthy lifestyles and an inadequate nutrition (junk food) that cause alterations in its biochemical levels. We should therefore not blame these lifeenabling molecule, but our own irresponsible behavior toward our body and our health. Despite its negative undertones, this fetching molecule plays a pivotal role in the correct functioning of our organism. It has countless biochemical functions, like being a precursor for vitamin D and for several hormones, and is the main ingredient in cell membranes. Every cell in our tissues is held together and able to interact with its environment thanks to such membranes, which provide structural support for cell contents. In these snapshots cholesterol appears imposing and majestic, threatening even, as if to remind us of the central role it plays in our lives. REAL SIZE of the subject of the artwork: 0.7 x 1.1 mm (0.044 x 0.029 in). As a medium I use the digital photography with the help of a microscope. This series belongs to the project "molecules of life", for more information please check out my official website: www.antonioromeo-fineart.com _

I define my author projects, more visual than discursive, like "Quiet and pleasant strolls through the microcosm of human: microspaces of a parallel universe of emotional energy." Like processes that take place in our creative mind of logic gates with switches of colors. The creative mind: the completely "irrational" and so exclusive trait of the homo sapiens. - In my teenage years, I observed to the microscope a thin slice of rock that contained an astounding amount of microfossils of single-cell animals, petrified hundreds of millions of years ago, but still telling about their morphology, their habitat, their staggering biodiversity, and their role in our evolutionary history. Their narration took the form of microlandscapes of endless mass graves full of delicate recumbent beings. I felt the need to retain that moment in my memory capturing it with a photograph. My pictures want be an unedited vision across suggestive and baffling parallel-universe, unknown but very close: tiny corners of an infinite reality. I wish to share these snapshots with other naked eyes, viewers diving into them and promenading through them leisurely: in a symbiosis of aesthetic experience, cognitive process and also a reflection on the theme of those artworks, speaking to us about our technoscience present which is writing our future. As a medium for my artistic production, I use the digital photography (fine art pigment prints) with the help of a microscope.
