In the epoch of the Anthropocene, mankind no longer sees itself as part of nature, but as ruler of it. It exploits and destroys nature for its own purposes. The tendency of mankind to dominate nature will eventually lead to nature dominating mankind and thereby erase traces of human activity. In this work the contrast between the manifestations of human works and the indestructible resilience of nature is mirrored in the materials: ubiquitous artificial man-made materials vs. the elements of living nature, high-tech material versus the most primitive forms of life.
