The hyper-realistic oil paintings by German artist Stephan Kaluza frequently depict rainforests as fading, vanishing motifs to signal nature's looming demise. Here, the natural world is withdrawing from humanity to develop its own separate life amid its own collapse. The familiar themes surface: climate change, environmental exploitation, and the question of how, or whether, we can relearn to live alongside nature. Through his paintings, Kaluza states that humanity seems to have built its own bubble on this planet, looking down indifferently, sometimes arrogantly, on the forests it once came from.
