The feeling of looking through a telescope into the vastness of the night is also found in the microscope. This device acts as a portal to the sub-universe of the micro, revealing organised and hidden forms within more complex organisms. Indeed, it is a gateway to the complexity of life, an adventure into understanding from the smallest. | In terms of the macro, the big bang is the starting point of the cosmos, but what is the initial substance of matter and bodies? | ||
The feeling of looking through a telescope into the vastness of the night is also found in the microscope. The microscope functions as a portal to the sub-universe of the micro, of organised forms hidden in the larger terms of "more complex" organisms or elements. But in reality it is a portal to the complexity of life, a venture into understanding from the smallest. | |||
Just as in numbers, between the one and the two there is infinity, because 1 or 2 will always be an approximation to the number but never the whole number itself, it will always be 0,99999…… or 1,99999…… Between the one and the other there is this same infinity that makes us not separate matter. Bodies are not separate from each other as numbers are not compleatly an entire thing. | |||
Everything that exists in the cosmos is coming from an initial point, and all is a constant expansion of this energy that collides and grows. Constant contraction of energy constant collision reacting with each other. What would happen if we were able to see the unseen, what would happen if we were able to see the matter between matter, what makes the union from everything, the initial substance. | |||
Through structures found under the microscope, the idea of monad (phylosospic term to describe the initial or originating substance) is explored by speculating on its shape, texture and colours. | |||
The images were taken with the aid of the microscope and extracted from samples of different Weimar waters (ponds, ilm park, fountains) in the search for an encounter with this world of the micro. | |||

This project traces a visual and conceptual journey through shapes, textures and colours observed through microscopes, with the intention of exploring the initial substance of matter. Under the microscope, a multitude of surprising microorganisms are hidden, as well as abstract shapes, colours and textures. On this journey, I try to forget the scientific use of the microscope and use it as a tool for creation, observing through it with the utmost sensitivity and a naive and inexperienced gaze. I do not photograph beings that I find, but forms and sensations that capture the attention of my eyes. | This project traces a visual and conceptual journey through shapes, textures and colours observed through microscopes, with the intention of exploring the initial substance of matter.
