Inwelt by Maximilian Prüfer (b. 1986) is the continuation of the 2016 publication Brut and encompasses the various series of works by the artist in the intervening period. Prüfer's work employs a number of procedures of his own invention that reveal the traces left by insects and other natural phenomena. He analyses animal behaviour in order to then compare it to human behaviour. For instance, in his series Forming Thoughts, which he began in 2020, the artist explores the pathways and tracks made by ants. In doing so, he attempts to establish a direct link to neurological structures and to draw conclusions regarding the behaviour of creatures that live as collectives, as well as humankind's understanding of nature.
