About her: "I'm not a scientist, I just love and am fascinated by the natural world, especially at the microscopic level.
I also write articles about the intersection of art and science for The Finch & Pea (http://thefinchandpea.com/)".

The text on one of the images is by Marcus Aurelius, Meditations.

"All that is of the body is as coursing waters, all that is of the soul as dreams and vapors; life a warfare, a brief sojourning in an alien land; and after repute, oblivion. Where, then, can man find the power to guide and guard his steps? In one thing and one alone: the love of knowledge."
