BVPS Next Nature in Zollverein
Following the 2003, 2005 editions in the Netherlands, the 2006 edition of the Biggest Visual Power Show was held in the German World Heritage site Zeche Zollverein.
With our attempts to cultivate nature, humankind causes the rising of a next nature, which is wild and unpredictable as ever. Wild systems, genetic surprises, autonomous machinery and splendidly beautiful black flowers. Nature changes along with us.
