MINIATURES
„Miniatures“
is an installation consisting of a series of graphic prints – miniatures
displayed together with a magnifying glass attached with the purpose to incite
interaction with spectators. The prints are engraved in drypoint and depict
explosions of unknown and insignificant origin. This work is questioning the
relationship between image and observer by transforming forceful and
omnipresent media images into miniatures aiming at provoking 'the passive and
media-bombed eye' of the spectator. In order to achieve its purpose this work
interactively involves the spectators: the magnifying-glass engages us to get
closer to the work, face the prints at close range and pause to consider their
implications in an intimate ritual of
observation. On the one hand this installation semantically comments on
information redundancy, and on the other hand emotional levity and indifference
to such occurences in the world in
which, due to vastness of spectacles, people don't perceive sufferings and
devastation. Therefore, despite the format, these miniature explosions of high aesthetic value are very powerful and
embody subtle social criticism.
