Unfettered curiosity and a drive to search for the essence of things: this is the world that inspires the photographer and artist Chris Tille. He has always been fascinated by the aesthetics of the elements and the visual magic of primal origins. However, for Tille, it is much more than just the pure beauty of fleeting natural phenomena, drawing from major topics affecting humanity, including history, science and religion.
In 2014, Tille started working on his Natural Corporate Identity cycle. The project reflects upon possibilities arising from reproducing details of the natural environment. He played with a variety of elements, selecting relevant forms and appropriate colours, creating distinct unique patterns. Branches meander like the veins of a leaf through kaleidoscopic circles and geometrical formations, generating dream-like imagery, portraying mysterious, fantastical worlds.
The painstaking meticulousness and uncommon aesthetics of his work captured the attention the Max Planck Institute and NASA, with which Tille works closely.
