Germany | 9' | 09/2026 | experimental animation

Blending CGI collages, photogrammetry, and real footage, Display Nature explores how urban and digital spaces mirror our idea of nature and ourselves. A reflection on perception, absurdities of commodification, and disconnect within artificial modern life. „Shape nature, to shape yourself.“
