Geometry of urbanization

This project is about the growing human impact on the environment

The humanity has won the competition of species, which inhabit the Earth. It has since intruded in the most remote places of our planet. Gasification, electrification, development - all these activities leave a man's footprint on the Earth’s body. During my trip to Dagestan in May 2016 I was constantly observing how humanity defeats the environment, takes the land over meter by meter. We overmaster the Nature with our technologies. Sometimes it does not harm and looks perfect in composition. It became a great inspiration for pictures that I’ve taken during that trip.
