Zsuzsanna Mitten aka (Art by a mito mum) drew and painted all of the images you see on this page. The reason for the name is to bring awareness to Mitochondrial disease.
The following data was collected from chat-gpt ( I think some of it was derived from Wikipedia.)
"Mitochondrial disease refers to a group of genetic disorders caused by dysfunction in the mitochondria, the energy-producing structures in cells. These diseases can affect multiple systems, as they interfere with the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cell’s primary energy source.
Symptoms vary widely depending on the severity and specific mutation but can include:
Muscle weakness and pain.
Fatigue.
Neurological issues (seizures, developmental delays).
Cardiovascular problems.
Respiratory difficulties.
Diabetes or endocrine disorders.
Overall, mitochondrial diseases can significantly impact quality of life and may lead to serious health complications."
I wanted to describe Mitochondrial disease first, as that is the most important part.
As far as the art is concerned, it couldn't be more charming or dreamlike. Each one of the depictions could find pride of place in a book cover or illustrated story.
With architectural homes like these, the only thing you have to do is to populate them with beings and their stories, to complete the picture. When the start-off point is so rich in fantasy and inspiration, it wouldn't be difficult to weave a story around it.
As is the case for all our posts, the artist's name is also a link to their social media page or their site. Have a look at more of her art and enjoy it here and there.
