Korfmann photographed several parks in her immediate surrounding, the city of Amsterdam. Here she was reflecting on life during and after the pandemic when parks and green spaces became even more important for urban dwellers. Visualizing a refreshing view of the world in which no distinction is made between nature and culture she focuses on the concept of life as a metamorphosis, in which coexistence coincides with transience.

Waldung, Amsterdamse Bos
Piezography

‘Waldung’, german for grove, depicts a section of trees in a forest, some of them fitted with platforms on various hights, ropes and wires hung from
one tree to another. A handfull of people are standing on the platforms or hang in the ropes. This, for Korfmann’s work unusual perspective nevertheless challenges the
viewers eye. The trees appear taller, some of them endlessly growing into space; there is no ground we could refer to nor a distinguished end of sight. As in many of Korfmann’s works it’s an arbitrary still in time and space and it is unclear at which point we are at. Looking at trees is soothing for our minds and fills us with joy. Climbing in trees even takes us a step further and unites us with the beloved nature that we still feel to be part of but can’t seem to find an adequate way to relate to it.
In her photographic series Symbiocene, Korfmann visualizes a refreshing view of the world in which no distinction is made between nature and culture. She focuses on the concept of life as a metamorphosis, in which coexistence coincides with transience.
