Urban Wilderness in Bochum: City Nature Meets Industrial Culture

With Urban Wilderness, an outdoor exhibition is coming to the LWL Museum Zeche Hannover that changes the perspective on the city. The photographs by Sven Meurs showcase wildlife in German cities and bring the hidden city nature directly into the audience experience.

When Foxes, Wild Boars, and Kingfishers Take Center Stage

The exhibition relies on powerful motifs and a clear message: urban space has long been a habitat for animals and plants. Sven Meurs has been working for many years as a photojournalist, speaker, author, and moderator, focusing his projects on the relationship between humans, nature, and urban wilderness. His visual language combines attention with clarity and makes ecological diversity in the Ruhr area and beyond visible.

An Exhibition Venue with a Special Atmosphere

The LWL Museum Zeche Hannover provides the perfect setting for this presentation: historical industrial backdrop, open spaces, museum atmosphere, and plenty of room for a relaxed exploration. Visitors here not only experience photography but also a vibrant interplay of industrial culture, education, and nature observation.
