Stunning Glass Sculptures Of Deadly Viruses
HIV, Swine Flu, E. Coli, SARS, Malaria and Small Pox.

You’ve heard the names of these deadly pathogens but thanks to the exquisite work of visual artist Luke Jerram, you’re now able visualise some of the most lethal viruses on the planet. http://www.lukejerram.com/glass/

Just to put it into perspective, each of his unique sculptures is around 1M times bigger than the pathogen itself. They aren’t exotic figments of his imagination either, he’s painstaking crafted them after consulting with virologists from the University of Bristol and spending countless hours studying scientific photographs and industry approved models.
