Infinite zoom into the infinitely small

This digital artwork, created by Australian artist Luke Conroy and supported by C2N, offers a visual experience based on an infinite zoom—a gradual journey into the infinitely small. Designed from photographs submitted by C2N staff, it embodies a process of collaborative creation.

The work takes the form of a collective visual memory, composed of fragments of everyday life in the laboratory. It reflects the research conducted at C2N, where each individual contribution forms part of a larger whole. The material shared by the laboratory staff gives rise to a vision of C2N shaped by aesthetics, collaboration, and the human dimension of research.

This installation mirrors C2N’s principles: sustainable and responsible research, diversity of nationalities, backgrounds, and research areas, scientific ethics, impact on living beings, contribution to the common good, as well as creativity and innovation.

Carrying identity and history, this artwork highlights the human richness of C2N and serves as a reminder that research is oriented toward knowledge in the service of society and the common good.
