This is an award that i made for the Academy of Natural Science in Philadelphia.It is a sculpture of a diatom ,a diatom is a Microscopic silica organism that lives in water.There are millions of different species of this organism and this particular one is named after Ruth Patrick. Ruth just turned 100 years old on November 17,2007 and still works full time at the Museum . She actually discovered this one that i made.In her life time she has given many award for discovering the corallation between certain species and polluted and unpolluted waters.So certain species are markers for different types of pollutants.It was honor to make and here it is.Thanks Nate
