Ryan Jennings - Weekly artist post

Karin Apollonia Mueller



Karin Apollonia Muller is a photographer that graduated with her masters in fine art in Germany in 1992.  From 1990 on, she has been awarded many awards for her photography and has participated in many exhibits on her own, as well as with group exhibitions.

Karins photos are often taken from distant vantage points and does a wonderful job at capturing how man made structures often conflict with the natural terrain of the world.  She shows how beautiful the landscape can be but can often be damaged by new construction and objects.  The built world has taken over the environment and I think how her photos show the natural world still trying to flourish.

I like these photos because it shows how peaceful the natural world could have been, but now it is being taken over by buildings or dividers such as a fence.  Almost showing a hard line between the two environments.  I also like the soft tones and perspective that she chooses to make her photos.
