OKLAHOMA CITY – Insects surround us—in the air, water, and underfoot—playing vital roles in Earth’s fragile ecosystem. Small Wonders: Insects in Focus, created by artist Bob Sober, uses cutting-edge technology to reveal the hidden beauty of insects at an extraordinary scale, inspiring curiosity about the form, function, and diversity of nature.
Insects have existed for over 350 million years and make up the vast majority of animal species on Earth, with thousands living in our own backyards. Recent advances in digital photography and imaging now make it possible to capture human-scale, ultra-high-resolution images that reveal every detail—color, texture, and structure—as insects truly exist.
Featuring 30 striking images, Small Wonders brings viewers to the intersection of art and science, showcasing insects as living works of art through vivid colors, intricate patterns, and remarkable design.
