When we are presented with the word landscape, we usually imagine a natural landscape in a horizontal and static format.
But the term landscape includes all kinds of landscapes: natural, industrial, urban, underwater and even cosmic.On the other hand, neither the landscape nor our perception are static. Light activates the landscape, constantly transforms it. Our perception can only capture fragments of this perpetual transformation and it does so through all the senses, not just view, and at human scale, recording all the details of the landscape.
This multiple, macro, micro and multisensorial perception leads to the creation of a landscape of one’s own, involving images, temperatures, textures, smells and, to a lesser extent, tastes as well.This leads me to reflect on how landscape can be perceived and represented and approach it in different ways. Verticalizing it, working on the basis of fragmentation involving elements that are present in the landscape, artificializing it and searching for the seed of the future in destruction.
