Romy Pfeifer
Central to my practice of photographing is my devotion to nature and her dynamic, transformative force.
When I’m strolling with my dog and my camera through the forests or along a seaside, I have the feeling of being just in the right place. I feel a strong connection to all the beauty that surrounds me: the trees, plants, animals, fields, the sea, and the sky. Making photographs in these landscapes is a kind of meditation for me, and I feel the healing power. Through my art I have found my place in the world, and it helps me to better understand my life.
With my way of photographing, I work on our living and connection to nature, on the rhythms of nature, and on the eternal transformations. My images force the viewer to look closer. Reality dissolves into abstraction, evoking both the vitality of nature and its ephemerality.
In an era of rapid technological change and environmental crisis, I hope to be able to remind with my photographs of the enduring beauty of nature and the importance of preserving and protecting it.
