Mediatricksters 2011: Meditation
The concept of my current work is the appeal to nature and its primary elements. I like to integrate my work with the elements – I want to show the fragility of our world, the depth and timeless beauty of nature. With this I would like to draw attention to many contemporary problems like over consumption, waste problems, housing and community problems... The idea behind my photographs is not only to show the human evolution but to trigger a reconnection with nature.
