Water, in abundance or in scarcity, is the central theme of Uncertain Homelands. Nora Bibel (DE) investigates the repercussions of climate change around the world, focusing on Indonesia, Namibia, and Germany. Through a combination of drone photography of landscapes, intimate portraits of people affected by human-made climate change, and interviews, Bibel creates a layered body of work that thoughtfully engages with global interconnectivity and the mutual influence of water systems. The uncertainty lies in the question how our lives will change as a result of climate change. Uncertain Homelands is a story about the threat to our familiar way of life, but also about the resilience and diverse adaptation strategies that people use to counter it.
