In this photography series, Kevin Van Aelst illustrates complicated scientific concepts using objects we see in everyday lives. From clouds formation explained in a coffee mug to the complex time-space continuum theory demonstrated with some measuring tapes, it’s just amazing to see these stuff from a whole new perspective.
