Nuisible sheds light on an unexpected aspect of winemaking. I used an electron microscope to create a gallery of portraits of insect pests in the grapevines.
Re-appropriating scientific tools for artistic purposes, my work questions the very basis of the photographic image as here the shooting process uses an electron beam. Exhibited in the Confrérie des Vignerons - during the 2018 Edition of Festival Images Vevey - Nuisible was shown in large light boxes evoking the lighting used for microscopic observation. The tiny pests seemed like giant monsters.
