Contemplative biology is both an art of discovery and a science of astonishment
As a contemplative biologist, I have a passion: to explore this nanospace that light does not illuminate, and in these unseen territories, discover beauty, beyond the visible.
The world, seen on the scale of a few microns shows me that beauty exists without any possible observer… What universal truth has enclosed in this natural museum these plant pyramids, these silk sculptures and these hieroglyphs of the living? My approach, at the frontier of science and art, is first and foremost philosophical: Seeing the invisible is an initiation; To contemplate the inaccessible enlarges our inner horizon and enriches us with a fundamental question: why is the Invisible beautiful?
