The analog photo series “The Invisible Man” critically reflects on the relationship between humans and technology. In the interpretation of the Anthropocene epoch, humans have brought their environment under control, maintaining dominance over nature and technological processes. This scenographic work draws attention to the ambivalent nature of this phenomenon, portraying humans as shadows pushed behind technology.
The human figure appears as negative space, a materialized absence, while the surrounding environment is defined by the aesthetics of switching stations, control centers, and colossal industrial structures. With the help of machines, humans direct both the construction and destruction of their surroundings. The symbolic suspension of human presence simultaneously questions control over technology and ecological realities.
What utopian acts might still unfold? Who will be the survivors—humans, machines, or single-celled organisms?
