Maurigicae" is a visual work that brings the forest and moor landscape to life. The first rays of the rising sun break through the dense stand of trees and conjure up a magical play of light on the damp ground. The scenery radiates an incomparable tranquility and invites you to dive into the scenery.

For over 20 years, Swiss landscape photographer Oliver Wehrli has combined photography, technology and nature to create photographs that speak a silent yet forceful language. He prefers realistic depictions that appear natural and subtle, showing landscapes unchanged in order to remind the viewer of the beauty of nature without detours via abstraction. He finds his motifs in the close surroundings of his native Switzerland as well as in the vast landscapes of Europe or New Zealand. The photographer prefers to go out into nature with an analogue camera. For him, analogue photography represents the reduction to the essential - namely composing and capturing the image.
