Frank Kunert, Kleinen Welten, 2000s-2010s . For his series of “Small Worlds”, Frank Kunert constructs and photographs detailed miniature reproductions of seemingly ordinary places that reveal a turn for the absurd on a closer look. . “On the surface, these photographs confront us with all of the hollow words, catchphrases and banalities we encounter in our daily lives. The stereotypical and senseless aspects of human communication cannot be unveiled more convincingly than in their literal conversion into a visual medium. Kunert deliberately oscillates between humor, wit, scurrility and the grotesque. (…) On a deeper level, these "Small Worlds" are linked by a reoccurring motif: our deep human desire for security and our fear of loss, as well as our anxiety regarding the transitory nature of life. It is no accident that, despite all of the foliage depicted, there is not a single photograph in this collection that evokes a feeling of summer. In addition, Kunert does not portray secluded suburbia as a neat row of townhouses with carports, but rather as buildings that stem from the early post-war period. Melancholy and dejection pervade these images.” (Part of an article by Dr Christine Donat about Kunert's work) . More images and info in aseriesofrooms.com .
