What is your personal take on global problems such as climate change, social inequality and environmental pollution? Although we can feel a sense of responsibility for the world in which we live, it is impossible for us to comprehend the world in its totality.

Inspired by the ‘Overview Effect’, the profound shift in awareness and connection that astronauts feel when they see our ‘fragile’ planet from outer space, Nina wanted to create a similar experience from down below: an ‘Inview Effect’. She sent 48 packages with Petri dishes to people in quarantine, asking them to leave them out in their bedroom for a night. A week later, she photographed the result. By way of putting the human tendency towards superiority into perspective, and to reveal the mutual connection between the participants, Nina presents the cultivated ‘bedroom airs’ as enlarged projections reminiscent of a celestial body. In the accompanying video, she reflects together with the participants on their relationship with the ‘entire’ world, and with the ‘invisible’ non-human lives with whom we share our bodies, bedrooms and breath.
