2024, photography series
Post-Nature Studies examines the fragile separation between the organic and the synthetic through photography. In this typological series, algorithmic manipulation turns ordinary still-life flowers into remnants of the Anthropocene— metallic, plastic, and electronic shapes that look like the waste left behind by human industry.
The work is arranged in a grid that evokes Bernd and Hilla Becher's systematic typologies. It treats each image as both a specimen and a symptom. The repetition of form shows changes, which speculates that nature is slowly changing into its artificial double.
These images do not show what really happened; instead, they show how visual culture has become mixed up with post-technical processes of creation and destruction. Post-Nature Studies is a reflection on the vanishing of the "natural" image and the rise of novel visual forms within the digital ecology.
