HUMANKIND X NATURE:
Beth Moon -
“A despeito de nossa orgulhosa pretensão de dominar a natureza,
ainda somos suas vítimas, na medida em que
não aprendemos a nos dominar a nós mesmos.
De maneira lenta, mas que nos parece fatal,
atraímos o desastre.”
Carl Jung

Few of these trees have signposts or any markings/recognition. Indeed, they often grow in unexpected places, seemingly unaware of their surroundings, as if they exist in another world.
Our relationship to the wild has always played an important role in my work.This is a relationship I think of often, whether it is ravens in the wild, how we treat our farm animals, carnivorous plants, etc., this relationship ends up filtering into my work. I have a great appreciation for the natural world, so perhaps it is this emotion that I am trying to capture and share. I am not interested in simply documenting, but instead, I try to record the passion that I feel towards the subject when I take the photograph.
