The book and exhibition project examines the effects of climate change worldwide, focusing on Indonesia, Namibia, and Germany as examples. Drone footage of almost abstract-looking landscapes, intimate portraits of people directly affected by anthropogenic climate change, and personal interviews interweave to form a multi-layered narrative.
The uncertainty resides in the question of how climate change will alter our lives. The work subtly unravels the complexity of this question and shows how closely individual biographies, global water systems, and climate policy are intertwined, how they influence each other, and how everything is part of a cycle.
