The miniature has a very long history in art. Incidentally, it got its name, or rather its beginning, with the printing press. The richly decorated first letters of the initially handwritten books were the first miniatures to bear this name.

With this exhibition, my works were nominated for the art prize of the city of Fürstenwalde. All in all, many impressive small and very small works came together here, all of which invited you to take a closer look.

Beyond the monumental and pompous, the miniature gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in infinite stories – if you are prepared to look closely. Each picture is like a window that only opens when your nose is almost glued to the motif.

The theme “Preserving culture” gave me the opportunity to focus on some new types of insects from leftovers and found objects. My insects are hybrids of nature and culture. They pose their own questions about the influence of culture. About value and disvalue, about their positive and negative influences. Culture or unculture?
