Welcome, Dear Visitor

This website is a platform to showcase the photomicrography works of Joseph Adrian Walker, which are also available for purchase in digital and physical formats. Please contact Joseph in this regard to register your interest.

The digital images are all originally captured using a compound optical microscope, i.e., a “conventional” microscope, relying on white light passing through prepared specimens mounted on glass slides from an ever-expanding collection:

The subject matter varies widely, ranging from embryology to entomology, at various magnifications from 100x to 1000x, which is the practical limit for optical light microscopy.

The artistic endeavour is to intrigue and captivate the viewer. We hope you enjoy your experience – please feel free to get in touch..

Joseph A. Walker

As a scientist with experience in applied biotechnology & chemistry, Joseph has always been drawn to the fundamentals; the "first principles" of nature: This curiosity manifested early as the study of snails and ants with a magnifying glass in the garden as a child and matured to creating fluorescent nanoparticles in the lab from biological materials as a working adult. His search for the meaning of life is no more evident than in his artistic work, for which he has chosen the medium of photomicrography, i.e., photography using a microscope. He is in essence a visual philosopher of biology; a noetic naturalist…As such, each exhibit carries a central narrative motif. Carried through all his works is a sense of pontification and awe that continually harkens back to the origins of life and its diversity. Joseph currently resides in Newmarket, England, with his wife Salomie, who is a poet.
