  Joseph Scheer  

Arctia Caja Americana, Great Tiger Moth, 2001

Iris prints

34" x 46"


Joseph Scheer has developed a method of directly scanning moths to create large-scale, 34" x 36" digital prints on watercolor paper. More exacting than photographs, these prints convey a high level of detail, similar to what one would see under a 150x microscope. To date he has scanned approximately 1,000 species found within a 20 mile radius of Alfred University in New York, where he teaches. His work will be featured in the May issue of National Geographic.
