Cristina Picchi: IMPOSSIBLE LANDSCAPES

Kalle Laar: VOID

Schnee fällt, leere Stadträume, flüchtige Blicke von einem vorbeirasenden Zug: Impossible Landscapes –  eine visuelle Symphonie bestehend aus natürlichen Elementen und Umgebungen menschlichen Ursprungs, von grundverschiedenen Orten und Zeiten. Eine Untersuchung der Beziehungen zwischen Beobachter und Landschaft, Ruhe und Bewegung und schlussendlich, eine Betrachtung der Erneuerungszyklen, sowohl der Natur, als auch von urbanen Räumen.

Snow drifts, empty urban spaces, glimpses of views from a train quickly passing by: Impossible Landscapes will present a visual symphony of natural elements and man made environments, coming from disparate locations and seasons. An exploration on the relationship between observer and landscape, stillness and movement and ultimately, a reflection on the renewal cycles of both nature and urban spaces.
