New Heaven and New Earth

“New Heaven and New Earth” consists of images from the Aletsch and Rhône glaciers in the Alps, both scarred by global warming. The photographs examine the traces of environmental and climate impact in a world where belief in technological progress and the anthropocentric worldview dominate our society and our lives. The paradox is that the industrial and technological development that has given us our material prosperity is also the cause of the existentially unsustainable situation we find ourselves in.
