Herb Somm Collaboration
Cannabis Crystals: A Visual Collaboration for The Herb Somm
For over two decades, I’ve been exploring the hidden geometry of the natural world through the lens of crystal photomicrography. Using proprietary techniques, I grow crystals from a variety of substances —Cannabis among them—then photograph them under polarized light.
These are not digital renderings. Each image reveals molecular architecture—colors born from refracted light, patterns shaped by nature. The result is artwork that is elegant, radiant, and entirely unique.
My work is held in private collections around the world and is on permanent exhibition at the Hotel St. Francis in San Francisco, the Phoenician Spa in Phoenix, and other venues. I’ve been twice named Best Artist by Phoenix Magazine, and my broader body of work includes crystals formed from wine, chocolate, and other natural substances.
