The Atomolecular Collages are complex 3D molecular patterns of beings or materials made possible in the age of molecular manufacturing, transformed into fascinating universes created by a modified version of software used by bio- and nanotechnology firms.

“Smartificial world-debut custom molecular molecules all cosmetically infected with ornamental augmentation and all like self-assembling too and stuff.” ~ Year 2020 and then some.

They bring to mind the whole lineage of biomorphic abstraction, but if Kandinsky fantasized about what he saw under the microscope, Hope offers us a model of reality we can only imagine for now, and he does so with molecular precision. Or to use his own words: “To build that which exceeds our imaginations, we’ll of course firstly have to invent new imagination engines.”
