The European Month of Photography Berlin (EMOP Berlin) is the city's largest photography festival. At this year's event, Astrid Scheuermann will present her photographic project on the Oder River , from 7 to 10 March 2025, at the Retramp Gallery in Berlin-Neukölln.

ALLES FLIESST is a long-term project documenting the environmental disaster in the Oder in the summer of 2022 and the ecological changes. In close cooperation with scientists from Germany and Poland, Astrid Scheuermann also highlights the voices and perspectives of local residents in order to capture the human and social dimensions of the environmental disaster. The documentary project also raises questions about the future of the Oder as one of Europe's last free-flowing river systems.

At the opening on 6 March 2025, ODER~SO scientist Sai Hariharan will give an keynote lecture.

Astrid Scheuermann is a German-Panamanian photographer and filmmaker. Her visual work explores topics such as cultural diversity, identity, the relationship between people and their environment, and collective memory. She lives in Berlin.
