This piece is part of the collection ‘Nature is Golden’, which consists of photos I have taken across the world, enhanced with golden digital oil paint. I discovered that applying gold accentuates even the smallest details, revealing intricate features often unnoticed by the naked eye.
This series pays homage to nature, which holds profound meaning for me (and on a deeper level: who you are in relation to your context). Being outdoors, immersed in nature, grounds me. It lifts me above daily realities. It feels as though nature is tailor-made for me: protecting, embracing, carrying, and supporting me. Nature feels vast and purposeful, and I am a part of it. I am connected. Nature consoles me. As I walk through it, all my senses awaken, and my mind engages. The grandeur of nature, its awe-inspiring presence, makes me feel small yet imbues my existence with meaning. (And the animals I have photographed make me grin. What fantastic beings.)
Nature lives. It is alive. It is life.
