The Insect Portraits of Levon Biss

Was in Basingstoke shopping today and saw adverts for the local exhibition of this large format prints, only a 5 min walk from the shopping mall, free at the Willis Museum.

I saw his work a few years ago in a TV documentary, he creates stacks of 100 of frames of the Oxford University Museum of Natural Histories Collection.

Well forth visiting if you get a chance, on until 18 April 2020.

Bit far for me but if I'm that way will certainly have a look.

Worth a look at his website, has all the pics and you can zoom in, and in, and in...

Btw if you were interested0 don't go, I had an email saying they have closed due to the conavirus situation.

Watched the video, wow, the amount of work that goes into 1 image

Yes, got a nice booklet with the same shots, very impressive as large format prints. Also had some microscopes and mounted specimins for "kiddies" of all ages!
