When art and science collide, the Riverside Gallery in London takes the opportunity to display the resulting dissection, decay and disease in all its multi-tonal glory. The result is its latest exhibit, Picturing Science.
After whittling down a massive 650 entries submitted to the open exhibition, the final 26 will be shown at the Richmond gallery until 26 February.
Taking the symbol-filled language of science and layering it with another symbol-fuelled discipline, the artists had great scope to explore themes of medicine, astronomy, neurology and more.
Inspired by experiments to detect neutrino trails, artist Frédérique Swist depicts the subatomic particles as an immense flash of lines, light and neon.
Check out the online gallery for a selection of the best works on show.
