Abstract

This article presents an art project inspired by the exciting successes of the latest cancer-therapies, which make complete and sustained remissions of carcinomas a realistic outcome. Based on the histopathological specimens multidimensional graphics and sculptures are created. These objects of art can even be trasformed in musical compositions: by these means a multisensual art project succeeds in celebrating the modern successes of cancer-therapy and making them an instantaneous aesthetic experience.
