Intricate paper cross sections of human bodies by Lisa Nillson
These true-to-life, anatomical cross-sections are entitled the Tissue Series by artist Lisa Nilsson. She uses a technique called paper ‘quilling’ that turns MRI and CT scans into something altogether more artistic and strangely pleasing to the eye.
