Description

Cardiac muscle with muscle mitochondria. Cardiac muscle forms the thicker layer of our pulsing hearts. It contracts and relaxes, contracts and relaxes many times a minute, every minute of our lives. With many mitochondria, packed between the fibres, to provide the energy required for such a dedicated task. Cellular level art, paint on silk, digitised.
