Destination of the Time Travel
The Flimserstein below the location “Darblauna” on August 2, 1996.
At approximately 4:30 PM, around 20,000 to 30,000 cubic meters of rock broke away and tumbled into the forested area “Uaul Preuls.”
Damage Report:

Large boulders rolled through the forest, creating clearings and leaving scars in the landscape.

Expedition and Adventure
Immediately after the rockfall, we take a photo of a damaged section of the forest. Then, we travel forward in one-year increments to the present day. Each year, we photograph the same forest section from the same location. This creates a series of images documenting how the forest heals from the wounds of the rockfall.
