Projektbeschrieb

A Geological Index Of The Landscape (Short Brief)

A Geological Index Of The Landscape is a typological approach of the forms that make up lands- capes. The project confronts emotions and rationalism. The human fascination for the mysteries of the world matches the human need to reduce the world at his scale, to master it.

The project presents landscape photographs produced in a way to evoke mysteries and philosophi- cal metaphors. It plays with geological details and synthetics reconstitutions of phenomenons like sandstorm, waves or clouds.

The work contains more than two hundred pictures, classi ed and edited in the way to give illusion of a complete index but reminds that encyclopedic fantasies are as vain as they are seductive.
