Symbiosis 4.0

About 3 years ago I started the photographic project "Nature meets Technics" to give the viewer a different and unconventional perspective on the interaction of nature and technology. The idea of juxtaposing creatures from nature and industrially manufactured elements, e.g. made of metal, initially seemed like a harsh provocation: warm, filigree nature versus cold technical elements. In the end, however, each composition resulted in an aesthetically harmonious unity. One could say: motifs from nature and technical elements complement each other in their photographic effect, like in a kind of symbiotic relationship. The title "Symbiosis 4.0" is meant to express this and suggest that the next great transformation of our civilization must be a recalibration of the relationship between humans and nature.
