Presence is a project exploring time, relationships, and responsibility – with nature as observer, witness, and ultimately judge. It focuses on questions of sustainability, ecological awareness, and our relationship to the natural environment. Sculptures, functional objects, video works, scents, and music create a space for perception, reflection, and dialogue.
