The exhibition Johan Eichhorn in Luova Tuho (Creative Destruction) moves human interventions in nature into the human living environment. Instead of forest roads cutting through forests, drainage ditches drying out bogs and dams changing waterways, they appear in people's homes and other everyday spaces. In the staged photographs, familiar environments become strange. At the same time, they make visible the shaping of nature, which has gradually become an almost unnoticed part of our everyday lives. The exhibition does not seek to give ready-made answers, but invites the viewer to consider why we accept things in nature that we would never accept in our own living environment. Johan Eichhorn is a Finnish-German photographer and theatre director. His works have been exhibited in museums, galleries and theatres in Finland and abroad. In his photographic art, he examines social phenomena by means of staged and narrative photographs.
