Laurindo Feliciano for BBC Wildlife

Laurindo Feliciano for BBC Wildlife (editorial, illustrator, The Artworks)

 

 

Laurindo was commissioned by BBC Wildlife Magazine for an article about the necrobiome - the vast community of insects, microbes and scavengers that transforms death into new life. Rather than approaching the subject in a literal way, Laurindo wanted to create an image that felt poetic and slightly unsettling: a suspended moment where decay, beauty and renewal coexist.

The concept behind the image was to depict a graveyard of scientific apparatus, from which vibrant, abstract shapes emerge, symbolizing the rebirth and evolution of scientific exploration unbounded by traditional funding structures/dogmatic cultures.

Nautilus is an award-winning, high-brow American science magazine that blends in-depth scientific reporting with storytelling, philosophy, culture, and art. Founded in 2013, its mission is to connect scientific topics to everyday life, exploring one specific monthly theme (e.g., time, consciousness, uncertainty) through comprehensive, long-form essays, interviews, and vivid illustrations.
