‘The Diatomist’, A Short Documentary About An Artist Who Creates Works From Microscopic Algae

“The Diatomist” is a short documentary by English filmmaker Matthew Killip about Klaus Kemp, an artist who creates works using single celled algae called diatoms. Kemp collects and arranges the tiny organisms into complex patterns.

The first time I saw a diatom, it was love at first sight. I could not get over how nature could create something so beautiful.
