Biography
Philippe Wittner, born in 1955 and residing in Switzerland, is a singular artist whose work explores the fascinating world of insects, serving as a mediator for a crucial part of our disappearing ecosystem. Through his meticulous drawings, Wittner offers a unique vision that, although seemingly coming from his imagination, pays homage to the richness and diversity of forms observed in nature.
His artistic approach is rooted in a deep sensitivity to the beauty of natural structures and the vital role of insects in ecological balance. His works, often described as creations at the border between art and science, highlight the delicacy and complexity of these small creatures, drawing attention to their importance and vulnerability.
In 2022, his work was recognized in an article published in the journal Osservatorio Outsider Art (Primavera 2022/23, pages 86 to 97), which explores his distinctive approach and commitment through his drawings and photographs.

Il était une fois la vie. La vie est une infinité de chemins que l'on emprunte, que l'on fuit, que l'on suit et qui, si on prend le temps d'observer en s'élevant offre un paysage imaginaire et merveilleux. Belle découverte Philippe.
