The starting point of the Master's thesis is based on an exploration of the question of meaning and fluidity in human perception. In my research I stress the importance of uncertainty as the moment when change begins to occur. Despite the danger of a collapsing structure, these moments offer new possibilities of communication and coexistence that go beyond our established ideas of reality and normality. I focus on transitions in the everyday that move in the domain of meaninglessness, identity and living space. In the process, I encounter the complex dynamics between the domestic and the wild, the adaptability of life forms in urban and natural environments as well as notions of expansion, settlement and the occupation of space, while addressing the indelible traces we make as we navigate our environment. The practical part explores the parallel existence of urban and natural habitats, revealing the complex intersections, symbiotic relationships and harmonious coexistence between the two worlds. In doing so, it draws on locality, the artistic process and the choice of materials. My aim is to examine the situations that emerge as ruptures between culture and nature. Through the theoretical part, I explore the hierarchies that we humans have established in the object world and the concepts that shape our understanding of reality, while at the same time breaking down and classifying the entire cosmos in our favour.
