The physicist and process philosopher Alfred North Whitehead called nature a “… structure of evolving processes. The reality is the process.”* In his conception, everything that is in process is alive – humans and other more highly developed life do not occupy a special position in this.
With the series of works “Abiotism”, works are created that trace the vitality in abiotic processes and structures.
