Printing on aluminium
100 x 200cm
UV print; coated aluminum, colored epoxy resin

Images are hypotheses about the visible. Only the viewers ability to connect what they see with their own knowledge and sentience makes a picture readable. The aluminum panels of the 'Mirrors of the Unseen' series seem to present a gaze into the body. The motifs are applied onto the plates through UV printing technique. They are informed by technical images displaying "structures of life“, namely by microscopic images used in the medical field, which again are based on different imaging methods. Scaling, image processing, and rearrangement open up new aesthetic fields of interpretation. The tableaus measurements with 2 x 1 meter reminds the size of a mirror, encompassing the viewer's body and pointing back to the reality of the visible.
