Airpocalypse
Air pollution is one of the world’s most pervasive yet least visible environmental threats. Emissions from power plants, industry, and transportation release microscopic particles that contribute to respiratory and cardiovascular disease, disproportionately affecting communities living near major sources of pollution while degrading the air shared across borders.
In Airpocalypse, RASMUS DEGNBOL documents this invisible crisis by collecting air samples from around the world and photographing them under a scientific microscope. His striking images transform microscopic pollutants into tangible evidence of an atmosphere under strain, revealing the hidden material reality of the air we breathe.
