Jakob Krause observes the interface between humans and nature and attempts to process this on canvas using oil paints. A deep connection to all forms of life on our planet gives rise to an appreciation for the small moments in life, as well as a critical examination of life itself, modern human behavior, and the influence of civilization on our planet. The works aim to inspire reflection or show the quiet, contented moments of human life beyond the modern, hectic digital world. The artist is particularly fascinated by the fringes of civilization—this is where two worlds meet and create a microcosm in which it seems as if nature in its original form and humans could coexist.
