Traces is a collaborative project of conceptual artist Kim Asendorf and his wife Jana, who has been exploring the relationship between man and nature for many years.
A living image of nature and the traces mankind leaves behind. A rock, formed hundreds of millions of years ago; a plant evolving over millions of years. Both are symbols of nature untouched. Color symbolizes thousands of years of human impact on nature. Animation creates another level of traces to get lost within, an indefinite change of state, we can just stand by and watch. Photography is used explicitly as an act of digitization and as an extension of nature into the digital world.
After Doppelgänger, artist and Quantum Art founder Justin Aversano’s groundbreaking NFT project, Traces is Kim's second foray into real time photography manipulation. The audience will enjoy a new aesthetic, one visually optimized to mesmerize. More importantly, Asendorf hopes this work will make the audience think about the traces they leave behind in the nature.
