My elephant's approach is the increasingly fierce clash between "nature" on the one hand and "culture" on the other. Urbanization, deforestation, global warming, pollution, overpopulation and wars, all direct consequences of our so dear "culture" that ensure that more and more animals and plant species are threatened with extinction, if not already gone ... Fienicks symbolizes an urban "wasteland" to which nature slowly gives back color and eventually "nature" will dominate again.
