The Surreal Sci-Fi Farms That Grow Most of Our Food

According to the creation narrative, God made green plants on the third day, an idea that inspired the title of Henrik Spohler’s project, The Third Day. His series documents industrial agriculture’s obsession with monoculture and large-scale farming across Europe and the US. The title isn’t a religious reference, but instead intended to comment on how we now play creator, conquering and manipulating plants in "unnatural" ways.

"Nowadays the landscape is dominated by industrial interests," he says. "It’s not God creating new genetic species, but humans."
