collaborative project supported by the Royal Society of Chemistry which

Elements aims to produce a new and vibrant visual assessment of the
startling diversity of material that constitutes the world in which we
live, not simply by rendering images of the respective elements but
also by investigating the manner in which they affect our daily lives
in largely unseen and often unexpected ways.
