The Periodic Graphics of Elements

Look at the periodic table. What do you see?

118 unique elements, which are the building blocks of our material world, comprised everything around us--from the books that we read, the phones that we use, to the cars that we drive. Lithium, in the lithium-ion battery, starts a cell reaction to provide energy for our phones; octane and oxygen combust to generate energy and keeps our car moving. Nickel is used for our coins; titanium aids the lives of disabled people. 

Thus, I created the project The Periodic Graphics of Elements to explore these elements (especially their common usages) and show that they not only exist as the concepts in the chemistry books, but also are relevant to us. 

These are the some selected graphics from my science illustration project Alchemy. Hope you enjoy!
