Sinossi

“The tiny creatures that run the world,” is how myrmecologist Edward O. Wilson described insects. They are nature’s cleaners, food for many other species and are essential for the pollination of plants, including our crops. They deserve a stage to put their importance ánd beauty in the limelight.

Rogier Maaskant’s (NL) enchanting images unveil a diverse array of insects in flight during twilight and nighttime – in forests and above fields, ditches, and ponds around Rotterdam. By using strobe light, his single exposures provide a unique view of the flight of caddisflies, moths, lacewings, dragonflies, gnats, and various other species that illustrate the rich biodiversity.

With an essay by Auke-Florian Hiemstra, science communicator at Naturalis, Leiden.

Informazioni sull'autore

Rogier Maaskant’s upbringing unfolded in the tranquility of a rural village, surrounded by nature, before he made a move to the dynamic city of Rotterdam. Initially immersing himself in the study of architecture, a convergence of circumstances led him to pivot towards photography – an expedient and more autonomous medium – at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. In 2001, his talent garnered recognition when he found a place on the long list for the prestigious Prix de Rome
