In Ghostpile, Lukas Felzmann explores the relationship between human activity and the natural landscape, examining how traces of intervention shape our perception of place. Pyramid, Sacramento Valley reflects his interest in the ways landscapes are altered, organized, and transformed over time.

A Swiss-born, California-based artist and educator, Felzmann works across photography, sculpture, and installation. His practice investigates environmental change, natural systems, and humanity's attempts to understand and control the natural world.
