What is nature in a world where almost every environment has been influenced by humans? I was searching for the primal, the immutable. And what could be more natural than caring for the well-being of our offspring? The love for the life we create drives evolution forward. Maternal love is unconditional and boundless. This feeling unites many species on this earth. My wish is for us to direct our gaze toward what we have in common. That we encounter the nature around us with respect and as equals.
