Artist's Statement

Nikki Meyyazhagan's internship reasearch of capsule endoscopy caught my eye immediately and I knew at once that this was the project I had to do. My painting represents an endeavor through the human body using capsule endoscopy. The vibrant pinks and reds exemplify the tissues, organs, and a beating heart. Deep, dark blues and greens portray the problem that the capsule is searching for as it travels through the body. Capsule endoscopy helps those with health problems keep in check with their well-being and is an exciting new piece of technology in our world today.
