About Ikarus فوٽوگرافي جو فن پارو

اڪارس هڪ فوٽوگرافي سلسلو آهي جيڪو ناپيد يا انتهائي خطري ۾ پيل نسلن جي محفوظ ٿيل پکين جي نمونن کي ڏيکاري ٿو. هر پکيءَ کي ريمبرانٽ جي مصوريءَ جي انداز ۾ پيش ڪيو ويو آهي، ۽ هر تصوير جو پس منظر ان پکيءَ جي کنڀن جي ميڪرو فوٽوگراف آهي. اهي نمونا جرمنيءَ جي شهر ڊريسڊن ۾ سينڪنبرگ انسٽيٽيوٽ جي پرندياتي (آرنيٿولاجي) ذخيري ۾ فوٽوگراف ڪيا ويا. عنوان اڪارس جي ڏند ڪٿا ڏانهن اشارو ڪري ٿو، جيڪو تمام مٿي اڏاڻو ۽ سمنڊ ۾ ڪري پيو. اڪارس هڪ سلسلي واري مجموعي جو ٽيون حصو آهي جنهن کي Neglect سڏيو وڃي ٿو. اهي ڪم ChromaLuxe مادي تي محدود ايڊيشن ۾ ٺاهيا ويا آهن.

Unique Properties
Here are photographed specimens of animals, most of whose species are extinct. For this series Dr. Martin Päckert, the head of the ornithology section of the Senckenberg Naturhistorische Sammlungen Dresden, he supported me very dedicated in my work.
In painting, the foolish or overconfident person is often depicted as Icarus.

animals, photography, endangered, extinct, birds, environment, portrait, Rembrandt
Production Technology
Digital Photography, produced on ChromaLuxe material.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to set the prepared birds in scene like in a Rembrandt painting. The background of the portraits is a macro-photography of the feathers of each bird.
Research
I found that in the collection of the Senckenberg Institute in Dresden the most rare examples of extinct bird species are collected.
From a project before I had the contacts to the institute and they immediately said yes, when I asked to photograph the examples for my project. Then Dr. Martin Päckert helped me a lot with the taxonomy and the names and the origin of the birds and the preparations.
Inspiration
We know the legend of Icarus, whose father Daedalus built wings of feathers and wax for himself and his son to escape from the captivity of Minos on Crete. The son Icarus became overconfident, the wax melted, he fell into the sea. Despite his father’s warnings.
Despite warnings and admonitions, we spiral into ever higher and warmer and warmer climes, and the crash is not far away. Okay, maybe that’s a bit drastic and striking. But all photographed birds are either extinct or highly endangered.
Project Duration
It took nearly a year of research and preparation, two days of shooting and around 2 weeks of post-production.
Operation Flow
This is the third series of my collection of series, called NEGLECT. All endangered or extinct species.
I had the wonderful chance to photograph in the ornithology institue of the Senckenberg Institutes in Dresden, Germany.
