May K. @proteinart.bsky.social · 25/02/2025Welcome to my blog, where science meets art! Here, I share my creations inspired by the incredible world of proteins. Proteins are the building blocks of life, essential for every living organism — no cell could function or even exist without them. 110
May K. @proteinart.bsky.social · 25/02/2025Unfortunately or fortunately, my twitter/X account has been suspended for an unknown reason. Therefore, I'm restarting my Protein Art project on Bluesky. I will also use this account to follow researchers and to post about arts and science. #Art&Science #ProteinArt #Art #Science 010
