Petra Vlčková I present human interventions on the natural landscape through my photographs. The impact of human presence is often conscious and has a negative affect on the environment which can also be positive. There are times when these interventions go unnoticed, however they pose a particular visual value. These series of photographs derive from long term observations of these situations. To articulate situations I’ve documented my staged interventions within the environment. petravlckova.sk Listening Trees. Photography, 26.8 in by 31.5 in.
