We might be the only species that is aware of nature and its crucial role to our survival. But to this day, we fail to even plan to act in a unified way to live sustainably on this one and only planet Earth.
The quest for survival and living-space has driven humans to be the dominant species in this world. But the endless thirst for more, and the need to control nature begs the question: ‘How long is this going to work, before we find ourselves on an inhospitable planet?”
This new photo series by Johannes Reinhart calls attention to the paradoxical relationship modern humans have with nature.
Internationally exhibited photographer JohannesReinhart was born in Germany and has lived in Perth, Western Australia since 2000. His photography is a reflection of his inner world and explores a myriad of themes such as shadow and light, our relationship to the world around us, loneliness, alienation and subcultures. Johannes has won the Moran Contemporary Photographic Prize, Australian Documentary Photographer of the Year and was a Lensculture and HeadOn finalist. His work has been exhibited around Australia and the world.
