... Read moreIf you’ve ever found yourself squirming at the sight of insects, this exhibition offers a fresh perspective, opening your eyes to their incredible complexity and role in nature. The detailed photographs, created from over 8,000 individual images, reveal textures and features invisible to the naked eye, transforming insects from mere creepy crawlies into fascinating subjects worthy of admiration. One of the most intriguing parts for me was learning about the cuckoo bee—a species that doesn’t build its own nest but instead lays its eggs in other bees’ nests. This unique behavior shows how diverse and surprising insect life can be. The exhibition also features cyborg insects designed for search and rescue operations, highlighting the exciting intersection of biology and technology. Hands-on exploration is a major highlight here. Using magnifying tools, you can inspect insect specimens closely and appreciate their intricate structures firsthand. The immersive sound installation, Stridulations, allows visitors to experience the subtle and complex way insects communicate through sound vibrations, creating an atmospheric and educational experience. Beyond just viewing, the ArtScience Museum also offers screening sessions focusing on the secret lives of insects, further enriching your understanding of their behavior and ecosystems. Whether you’re a photography enthusiast, science lover, or simply curious, this exhibition challenges perceptions and celebrates the unseen beauty of these tiny creatures. Visiting has made me appreciate how science and art can merge to bring natural wonders alive, encouraging everyone to see insects in a new light. So if you’re ready to overcome any fear or indifference, this exhibition is a fantastic journey into the microscopic world, guaranteeing an unforgettable experience.

Why you stopped opening your windows?
You don’t really notice it at first, you just stop opening your windows, because every time you do, insects come in and suddenly it’s not so safe anymore. So you keep them closed, and slowly your home feels a little less comfortable, a little less alive. Maybe it’s not about the space, maybe it’s a
