About the exhibition

The ‘After Nature . Ulrike Crespo Photography Prize’, initiated in collaboration with C/O Berlin, was presented in 2025 to Lisa Barnard (1967, United Kingdom) and Isadora Romero (1987, Ecuador). The exhibitions ‘You Only Look Once’ by Lisa Barnard and ‘Notes on How to Build a Forest’ by Isadora Romero will be on view at the Crespo Open Space.

What does it mean to live in a period after nature? The annual 'After Nature . Ulrike Crespo Photography Prize' was initiated by C/O Berlin and the Crespo Foundation to support two projects offering new perspectives on nature through photography and visual media. From the stressed ecosystem of California's Salton Sea to the cloud forests of Ecuador, the award-winning artists Lisa Barnard and Isadora Romero explore how we orient ourselves in landscapes shaped by socioecological change and technological infrastructures.
