Digital on the go - With your cell phone in nature - BeyondTheFrame

Description

Amongst grasses and flowers, under the open sky—yet still connected to your smartphone. This scene is typical of a generation that combines both: the desire to experience nature and the normality of digital communication. Online and offline are no longer opposites, but part of the same life.

This photo was taken as part of the project “Beyond The Frame: Young Perspectives on Diversity in Faith” by Neue Deutsche Medienmacherinnen. The project promoted a diverse and discrimination-sensitive portrayal of religions in the media. Between June and October 2025, young (photo)journalists took part in workshops on discrimination-sensitive photojournalism and, in an accompanied practical phase, portrayed young religious people from Berlin in their everyday lives. The project created new images beyond stereotypical representations of religions, empowered young BIPoC media professionals, promoted interreligious dialogue, and made the diversity of faith in urban areas visible.

The photo was taken at eye level and shows a young woman wearing a headscarf sitting in a field. She is wearing a hooded sweatshirt, under which her headscarf is visible. The woman is sitting on the ground with her legs bent, holding a cell phone in her hand and looking at it. She is surrounded by green grass and flowers, some of which are blurred in the foreground of the picture. The upper half of the picture shows a blue sky with scattered clouds.
