Kris Verdonck, MOUSE (2010)

 

'MOUSE shows - enormously magnified and in extreme slow-motion - a mouse walking into a trap.

The trap closes, the iron breaks the small body. A camera with super slow motion (10,000 images/sec) was used to unravel the mechanics of a movement, just like Muybridge did. The technique makes us experience an extremely upsetting emergency situation in the slowest possible way.' 

Below is a link to the piece on You Tube.
