NanoArtography is an international science image competition that combines nanoscience and art.

Grace won a second prize for her image of ‘Mount MXene’.    Congratulations to Grace!

The artwork was created by preparing a free-standing film of titanium carbide 2D MXene and tearing the film into smaller fragments to show a cross-section of the multi-layer and delaminated 2D flakes. The non-uniform breaking of the MXene film produced sharp edges which looked like mountain peaks. A snowy mountain scene is depicted to symbolize the outstanding accomplishments and contributions of MXene to many disciplines since its discovery, much like the pioneering climbers who first climbed Mt. Everest. The width of the image is 0.02 mm.
