Frank Kunert, born in Frankfurt in 1963 is a German photographer. In recent years, Kunert has mainly focused on creating and taking pictures of his “Small Worlds”.
The project “Small Worlds” is far from being mere photographic satire. Instead, Kunert has spent weeks, working with deco boards, plasticine and paint, in order to model his thoughts in 3D. With an exceptional eye for detail, he has constructed faultless models and created scenes that look just like the real thing. Kunert never flicks on his studio lights and reaches for his large-format camera until he feels that his models have reached a state of perfection - until they have become little worlds of their own. Kunert’s “Small Worlds” are equally funny, whimsical, grotesque, and pensive musings, and they are also provocative and critical. It is left up to the viewers to decide if they find the works morbid, or simply funny; if they want to truly see the deeper level of what the stories are telling them, and if they might even dare to elaborate on them.

From The Night Life of Trees - based on the ancient mythology of India’s Gond tribe, who believe that during the day trees serve to nourish and protect the Earth’s creatures, but it’s at night when they come into a life of their own. The illustrations, screen-printed on thick and textured black paper, come from three renowned Gond artists and blend the whimsical stories about the spirits of the Sambar tree with the practical uses of trees in Indian life

Matthias Haker Captures The Haunting Beauty Of Abandoned Buildings
German freelance photographer Matthias Haker explores ruins and near degrading architectural buildings left in abandon. The opulence of these great structures are restored, and the vibrant images are painting like, with the flaws becoming an alluring attribute of the degenerating structure. The series titled Impermanence calls to attention the ephemeral quality of architecture and art, and it’s eventual submission to the forces of nature.
