Struth's most recent work takes the viewer deep into normally inaccessible industrial and scientific territory. The images record the structural intricacy of remote techno-industrial and research spaces such as physics institutes, pharmaceutical plants, space stations, dockyards, and nuclear facilities. Stellerator Wendelstein 7-X Detail Max Planck IPP, Greifswald, Germany, taken within a German nuclear facility, presents an overwhelming mix of metal and wire in monumental scale that inspires visual wonder of the technological realm.
