The lost Caspar David

In the series of works The lost Caspar David (see image on the left), Christine Keruth explores the tension between nature and human freedom. The artist uses Caspar David Friedrich's iconic work The Sea of Ice as a pictorial quotation. She is interested in the tension between the beautiful and the sublime. Particularly in the current global discourse on the man-made climate crisis, these images make us aware of the smallness of mankind in relation to the elemental forces and at the same time their perceived effectiveness.
