Wilderness of the Arctic

The photographer:
Silke Hullmann was born in Düsseldorf and grew up in the Rhineland, where she still lives today. She is passionate about the fascinating beauty and diversity of nature, which repeatedly draws her photographically to remote places around the world. She is particularly drawn to the vastness of the Arctic and the untamed wilderness of the African continent.

Her photographs capture the magic of frozen ice landscapes, endless savannahs, dense rainforests and vast wetlands. With her keen sense of light and perspective - often from a bird's eye view - she creates impressive, colourful images that bring both the power and the delicacy of nature to life. With her photography, she campaigns for the protection of endangered animal species and valuable ecosystems and raises awareness of the urgent need to preserve them.

Silke Hullmann is a full member of the Gesellschaft für Naturfotografie (GDT) and the Naturfototreff Eschmar. Her work has been honoured several times in national and international photography competitions, and she regularly presents her pictures in exhibitions and multi-vision shows.
