Contact us regarding framing options. It is a piece from the "Coal Mine" series, which was shot from above the German state of North Rhine Westphalia's Hambach mine. 240 000 tons of lignite are extracted daily from this open pit mine, which has an area of 85 km2 and descends to a depth of 293 m below sea level. Germany announced its withdrawal from nuclear power following the tragic Fukushima disaster, which increased demand for lignite, also known as "brown coal," which is thought to be the energy source with the highest CO2 emissions. Since 2010, Bernhard Lang dedicates himself to aerial photography, travelling around the world and looking for singular landscapes impacted by human activities. From the sky, these views almost look like abstract paintings.
