Contact with Micro World installation, Botanical Museum, SPb, Russia, 2005

The idea of Contact with Micro World (Kontact s Micromirom) installation by Group 2012 was to use microscopic images of plants from the museum collection as a source for visuals and graphics. It included an interactive part where visitors could play the keyboard that triggered sounds and video images on three screens, slide show with hand-painted slides with embedded plant parts, and exhibition of processed microphotographs. It won the grant from Pro Arte Institute and was installed in the beautiful space of Botanical Museum as a part of Contemporary Art in Traditional Museum festival in 2005.
