Plankton and the War Dead Sea Scrolls is a series of digital imagery that brings together two previously unseen and unknown elements in our world: one, the microscopic life in our waters that form the basis of all life, and the other, hidden texts that may have given rise to some of the important philosophical and spiritual thought of our contemporary culture.
