About Samsa Berhema Hunerî ya Wênegiriyê

Samsa berhemeke hunerî ya wênegiriyê ye ji rêzeya Neglect (Îhmalkirin). Ev rêze nimûneyên parastî yên kêzikan nîşan dide, ku piraniya wan nemane an jî di xetereya nemanê ya giran de ne. Wêne bi pergaleke kamerayê ya dîjîtal û lenseke makro ya 105mm hatine çêkirin. Fonksiyoneke multishot (pir-wêne) hat bikaranîn da ku pelên pir mezin ên 185 megapîksel bên afirandin. Studyoyeke biçûk a ser-maseyê hat avakirin da ku nimûneyên nazik bêyî ku hema bêje dest lê bê dayîn, bên wênegirtin. Çap di du mezinahiyan de û di weşanên sînordar de tên hilberandin. Armanc ew e ku bedewiya neasayî ya kêzikan bê eşkerekirin û bal bikişîne ser nemana kêzikan.

Unique Properties
“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.
Dimensions & Packaging
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.

Production Technology
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.
Design Challenge
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.
Inspiration
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.
Project Duration
The planning took about half a year, in total it was four days on site to photograph. The post production took another two weeks.
Operation Flow
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.
