Soaring miniatures in vitro: sculptures by Rosa de Jong

Rosa de Jong is an artist from Holland who creates amazing micro-worlds with a special atmosphere. The craftswoman places miniature copies of buildings, water towers, transmission lines, trees, plants in glass flasks. The creations look so magical and touching that you want to be transported to a fairy-tale universe for a second.

The craftswoman draws inspiration from her dreams and childhood memories. All elements for future art objects Rosa De Jong creates manually using a minimum set of tools. To create vertical dwellings, the craftswoman uses various materials, but in priority those that nature has given. For example, Rose assembled a realistic water tower from cardboard, tree bark and branches, and moss.

Often, fragments of sculptures become material that a woman brought from her travels: (sand from the Monument Valley (Utah) and stones from the Caribbean Islands. The floating worlds of the Rose are combined into a series of works called ("Micro Matter"). The main task that the craftswoman puts before itself, is to cause peace and tranquility in the viewer.

“I dream that people look at my sculptures not because they have no other choice, but because they are interested,” Rosa shared. And we believe that the author has achieved its goal. Test tubes with a mini world are popular. Connoisseurs of unusual objects purchase the artist's works to amaze guests with the design of their home.
