Magnificent Matter is a Berlin based artist collective creating abstract and cosmic worlds under the lense of a microscope.
Our explorations dive deeply into the psychedelic realms created by nature itself, discovering the recurring patterns our micro and macrocosmic reality is constructed of.
Ranging from live vj sessions, over audiovisual installations up to fine art prints, we are always on the look for an authentic experience that represents and honors the beauty of our planet and beyond.
