What would the world be like without these small but complicated miracles?
Studies have shown;
76% reduction in flying insects.
45% reduction in invertebrate insects.

In this series we like to show a glimpse of the beauty of insects in a different way by fusing it with more familiar beauty, photographed(side profile) and digitally drawn(face frontal). 

We would like to bring these wonders to the attention so that they too will be more appreciated and we as humanity will start to value their work and presence differently.

It would be a shame if we were the cause of their downfall and, indirectly, our own.

How can we protect our animals if we eliminate the basis on which we all live directly or indirectly?

Golden Universe

How will places look, when forces of nature reclaim what once was lost, 
Will the new inhabitants of these marvels simply be bypassers or will they stay and make thriving cities of nature's life.
Because of mankind, the animals have been pushed to live in the most abandoned regions of the earth. In search of places where men are rarer than animals.

This series was made in collaboration with Yoerie Custers who was responsible for the photography of the uninhabited places.

Candy Dreams

NATURE, THE INFINITE SOURCE OF INSPIRATION
which has always made mankind dream beyond its own limitations and inspired them to exceed their boundaries.
Flying through the sky like birds, moving objects beyond the power of an elephant, and speed beyond the fastest cheetah and searching for depths beyond the limit of whales.

How would humankind be, and have been, without the natural treasures that make us dream and exceed beyond our limits?

Limitless

Cheraine Collette’s multi-award-winning series explores a possible world where humans and animals co-exist and live together.
In the beginning, we all lived peacefully together in a place called paradise.
But over time, humans grew further apart from the animals.
In this series we wonder how things could have been if we didn’t leave paradise, is there still a way to return?
Is there a way to create a new?
Will we find a way?
