Wilderness is vanishing before our eyes. New Nature is an ongoing project that combines the visual language of landscape photography and the formal legacy of structural film in the creation of archival audiovisual recordings of wild landscapes. These recordings are meant to be acquired and preserved by museums so that they might one day be experienced by future generations.
