Mitosis
Vincent Cryns, MD
Digital art created on an iPad with Brushes Redux
Artist’s Statement
“In cancer, the carefully orchestrated process of mitosis or cell division is hijacked to promote uncontrolled growth, often resulting in cells with abnormal numbers of chromosomes. This digital painting portrays the cellular chaos of a cancer cell.”
