A reflection on the fragility and folly of humanity in the age of the Anthropocene – the geological period where man is the dominant species on planet Earth. Taking the disaster of Fukushima as its point of departure, the projected images (shot on a telephone through a handheld telescope, so at once close to and far from their subjects) evoke an apocalyptic vision of modernity; at the same time, they reveal our predilection for historical amnesia and futuristic flights of fancy.
