Nature & Destruction

The exhibition ”Nature & Destruction” by the artists Daniel & Geo Fuchs is a photography project that the artist couple has been realizing on their travels across the world, including the Nordic countries, since 2007. The exhibition consists of extremely detailed landscape panoramas and close-ups that have been taken with a photography robot developed jointly by NASA and Google for taking pictures of Mars. The photographs show nature’s beauty and sensitivity, but also its destructive force as well as the devastation caused to nature by man; this is the origin of the name for the photographic series.

Daniel & Geo Fuchs (1966 / 1969) have worked together since the mid-90s and are known for their conceptional photography series. Their artwork has been shown in numerous international exhibitions and can be found in many public and private collections.

Finnish Heritage Agency has awarded discretionary government grant to the exhibition.
