Karl Gaff
Senior Technical Officer, School of Physics
Trinity College Dublin
Karl Gaff is a senior technical officer in the School of Physics at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland.
He holds a master’s degree in imaging and microscopy from University College Dublin and a bachelor’s degree in physics and physics technology.
Outside of his professional role, Gaff channels his passion for science into photography at his studio in South Dublin. By blending art and science, he utilizes microscopy as a tool to capture nature in ways never seen before, combining his artistic vision, creativity, and imagination. His goal is to produce photographs and cinematography that are not only visually striking but also scientifically accurate and educational. He aims to inspire and educate others about the wonders of physics and the natural world.
“Behind every picture there is a story, a story of nature that we try to decipher through the language of physics, chemistry, biology, and mathematics. Ultimately, Nature is the real artist here, I am just her photographer; I supply her with the ingredients, and she weaves them into the most wonderful colours and forms.”
