NEWS RELEASE 25th October 2005 Designer Interiors Science Photo Library (SPL) has exclusive UK distribution rights to the Alexander Tsiaras collection of 'never-before-seen' images of the human body. From cells to tissues to organs and systems, viewers are taken on an incredible journey through the human body. These unrivalled and artistic images are computer-built visualizations of data from the bodies of a man and woman who died in the early 1990s and donated their corpses to medical science. The bodies were frozen solid in a block of gelatin and then sliced from head to toe into more than 1800 ultra-thin layers and every 4mm of the body was polished and photographed.

He then enhances the images by computer, adding light and colour, and transforms then into powerful artistic statements." Alexander Tsiaras is an award winning and internationally renowned photojournalist and author. His images have featured on covers of leading international magazines such as Life, Time and The Sunday Times as well as television programmes and documentaries (Oprah Winfrey Show, Discovery Channel and Discovery Health), and also in books 'From Conception to Birth - a Life Unfolds' and more recently in 'Architecture and Design of Man and Woman', published by Doubleday & Company, Incorporated.
