Description

When healthy, our lungs elegantly and automatically provide us with life. About 22,000 times a day, these vital organs fill up, take in oxygen from the air, and exhale carbon dioxide from our bodies. Our lungs are an essential piece of us. “Healthy Lungs” captures the full beauty of the lungs, inside and out. From the outside, they appear as two simple triangular balloons. A deeper look within, reveals the depth of the bronchial tree and the sheer multitude of the alveoli. Lungs are much more than they appear; full of beauty, grace, and vitality.
