Inspired by the Earth's creations, Studio Mineralia 

connects Minerals, Art, Crystals & Clothes by using

natural geology as our guiding aesthetic principle.

​

Our planet provides endless variations of innately

fascinating color and geometry, formed in the dark,

waiting to capture your imagination.

Jonathan Stone, as seems appropriate,

loves rocks and minerals. His work is the product of a

life-long fascination with rocks, minerals and fossils

coupled with a need to encourage an interest in

and appreciation of our planet, itself.

His experienced eye and use of

macro photography create new perspective,

revealing hidden details and fractal landscapes. 

 

Specimens both rare and attainable

shine in a new light that fosters a deeper
connection to the earth and its natural processes.
Presentation on contemporary metal prints allow
for the play of light across stones, traditional

framed prints dovetail with any decor.

I was thrilled to learn that my photographs

"Phase' and ' Transition' have won the Photography category  in "Catalyst: A Science Art Exhibition" hosted by MSU SciComm (@msuscicomm),

Michigan State University's science communication organization.
