Synopsis :

With more than sixty stunning photographs of household insects, Aliens Among Us depicts a hidden world flourishing in our homes.

Over the course of his photography career, Daniel Kariko came to realise that many of his most stunning subjects could be found in his own home. Kariko utilises a combination of a Scanning Electron Microscope and optical Stereo Microscope to achieve a portrait-like effect for insects and arthropods. Vibrant in colour and surprising in personality, these images reveal such details as the glittering eyes of a horsefly, the strong legs of a centipede and the fetching smile of a honeybee. Each photograph comes with a full-body illustration from artist Isaac Talley and character descriptions from entomologist Tim Christensen. Blurring the lines of art and science, Aliens Among Us is a guidebook for anyone interested in putting a face to the creepy-crawlies under the couch.

À propos de l'auteur: Daniel Kariko is an associate professor of fine art photography at the School of Fine Arts and Design at East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina. His work has been shown internationally in galleries and museums.
