In "Microcosms," Bret and Rachel Harmeyer explore the strange artifice of displays of natural history through the creation of self-contained spaces. Environment is a key theme in this body of work, which engages with the aesthetics of science, which can provoke feelings of wonder or unease in the viewer. The idea for "Microcosms" originated in Bret and Rachel’s mutual attraction to natural history as a subject.
