The world as seen by ants

Different eyes observing our world from new perspectives... landscapes, signs, clues: and ourselves, and our actions... a curious lens in search of true or invented storiesAt Digitec Galaxus they told me they have already delivered it to you.

Our actions, reactions, behaviour are often influenced by the fact that we are certain not to be subjected to the judgement of those who can see us: in most cases, trivial situations, everyday ordinariness... but are we always so alone? And are our actions always so insignificant? Or, are the traces we leave just so invisible and above all, would they be without consequences if they were highlighted?

The ants, so small and invisible, observe us without us noticing them... and the marks we leave are for them obvious evidence.

I have put myself in their place and I am intrigued by this point of view: I started out driven by the search for new graphic perspectives but I got caught up in the game... for now, my focus is on everyday life but I am tempted to go deeper, leaving the viewer the possibility of multiple interpretations, doubts, suspicions, discoveries. Who remembers Blow up? From nothing comes stories with unexpected consequences. Watch out... someone is watching you.
