About the artwork

Photographic exhibition of insects enlarged to human scale. The artist spent a year collecting local insects and creating these works. Details invisible to the naked eye—such as the intricate structure of dragonfly wings or the iridescent scales of butterflies—are rendered with striking realism, allowing viewers to appreciate the beauty and diversity of their forms. Encountering these creatures on equal terms fosters a fresh Point of View on the natural world that surrounds us.
