De Samsa Opus Photographicum

Samsa est opus photographicum e serie Neglect. Series exemplaria insectorum conservata ostendit, quorum plurima exstincta sunt aut in summo periculo exstinctionis versantur. Imagines systemate photographico digitali et lente macro 105mm factae sunt. Functio multiplicis captionis adhibita est ad tabulas amplissimas 185 megapixelium creandas. Parvum studium mensale aedificatum est, ut exemplaria fragilia paene sine tactu photographari possent. Impressiones duabus magnitudinibus et editionibus limitatis producuntur. Propositum est insolitam insectorum pulchritudinem revelare atque animos ad exstinctionem insectorum advertere.

Post Designum

Fasciculus Nuntii

Merita, sodales gregis et singula technica a designatore praebita.

Proprietates Singulares: “As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect.”
Franz Kafka

Part of the collection NEGLECT, photographed specimens of animals, most of which are extinct or critically endangered.
I want to show a little bit of the sometimes bizarre beauty of the insects, so that the viewer might see them with different eyes.
Because insect extinction is very real and not a made-up story.
Dimensiones et Involucrum: Different artworks in two sizes in the end: 80 x 60cm and 120 x 90 cm. All available in strictly limited editions of 10/5 pieces.
Notulae: photography, macor, insects, bugs, nature, animals, creatures, colors, fine art, artwork
Technologia Productionis: Digital photography with the Leica SL2 system and a 105mm Macro lens.
The photographer used the "Multishot" function of the Leica System to produce giant 185 megapixel pictures of these little creatures.
Provocatio Designandi: The hardest part was to invent a small table-top-studio situation to photograph the little very fragile prepared insects. The photographer wanted to touch them as little as possible because the preparations are very fragile.
Inspiratio: Insect extinction is very real and not a made-up story.
And these little creatures do not have a loud lobby.
The photographer wants to show a little bit of the sometimes bizarre beauty of the insects, so that the viewer might see them with different eyes.
Florian W. Mueller worked before with the Senckenberg Institute on a project about mammals.
Duratio Operis: The planning took about half a year, in total it was four days on site to photograph. The post production took another two weeks.
Cursus Operationis: The photographer asked for the permission to photograph these sometimes very rare or extinct insects in the institute in Brandenburg near Berlin in Germany. Then he got to work there with great support.
