Artist Nils-Udo was born in Lauf, in the region of Bavaria, Germany in 1937; he currently resides in Riedering, Germany. In making ecological art, Nils-Udo seeks to engage humans in a sensory experience, an aspect of life often overlooked in the hyper-developed technological modern world. Ecological art in which the viewer can see images, feel textures of materials, smell plants and animals nearby, and hear interactions among the elements of nature is one of the most powerful ways of connecting the viewer to the artwork and to the planet.
