New Stunning Embroidered Anatomical Illustrations by Juana Gómez

Chilean artist Juana Gómez’s (previously featured here) latest project titled “Serie Constructal” explores the symbiotic relationship between nature and the human body. Sprouting like roots, our internal organs are an authentic reflection of nature, specifically the meaningful metaphorical shape of the tree. The iconic symbol of the tree is found deep within the silhouette of the human mind and lungs; while the flowing complexity and movement of water resembles the natural shape of our veins and nervous system. The latter is explored by Gómez’s fleshy illustrations and veiny stitch compositions.
