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. | |||
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.
