Rose-Lynn Fisher
Rose-Lynn Fisher is a Los Angeles-based artist whose years of mixed media painting and assemblage paved her path to photography and microscopy. Her photography explores microscopic and aerial views in a contemplative way, evoking sense of place, patterns of nature, or pure abstraction, and have found their way into a diversity of conversations, from the use of human biomatter in contemporary art, to architecture, to fluid dynamics, to haute couture.
She is the author of two books of photomicrographs: Bee, the honey bee viewed through a scanning electron microscope, magnified from 10x to 5000x (Princeton Architectural Press 2010); and The Topography of Tears, tears viewed through a standard light optical microscope (Bellevue Literary Press 2017). Other investigations include looking into the micro realm of ocean, bone, and other biological materials. Her work has been exhibited internationally in galleries, and museums of art, science, and natural history. Topography of Tears and BEE were both awarded by the International Photography Awards.
