When we reflect on nature, or the history of humankind, or our own intellectual activity, the first picture presented to us is of an endless maze of relations and interactions, in which nothing remains the same. Everything moves, changes, comes into being and passes out of existence. Wht is nature? uses a special technique of overprinting images and texts onto existing sheets of book paper to create a singular reading experience that captures the perpetual unfolding of nature as both a thing and a property within our reality, which is always already a conceptualized reality.

Wht is Nature? Wht is ? edition by Paul Chan Arts Photography eBooks
At first i couldnt tell who was begging---us or nature.Who is the submissive bottom: Nature or the Reader?
Then as I read further, making sense of the overlayed graphics of subways and maps and other visual depictions of human manipulation of nature's spatiality and how we harness its abundance, making it ours, making nature do what we need it to do for us.
This is a book about taming the gaint beast into a flat drawing (map) so we can navigate it. The length of the begging and repition made me think of this relationship historically, since when has man and animal shaped the land? Toiling and moving it around, borrowing it, using it, whatever the act Always taking something from it without giving anything back.
If it is nature talking in this book, then nature feels like a bottom to me, seeking out the co-dependence of a human top. Subservient, wanting to be forced into order for the pleasure of its tamer. Nature also feels guity and apologetic, not because it did anything bad, but because by nature it is bad and can't control itself, and it has become aware, it knows it now in the age of consciousness, and it wants to be punished.
Nature born to serve billions.

Wht is Nature? Wht is ? edition by Paul Chan Arts Photography eBooks Reviews
"What is nature?" is a very big question and "Wht is Nature?" is only one book. But, there are lots of images, of maps in particular but also of Chinese fireworks, the euro sign at Willy Brandt platz in Frankfurt, marble statues, and promotional imagery for the film "Eurotrip." None of these things are natural, really, and they are juxtaposed with quotes ostensibly about nature, although the quotes don't make sense and it seems as if a key original word has been substituted with the word "nature." I did find the diagram demonstrating different make-up effects particularly poignant in this context.
