Pictures from Alleland*
Alleland:
- is where the end is over and another end has begun, where everything falls, where nothing can
be understood, where there is no landscape and where there is no life anymore or something that
can be understood as such. In Alleland, all perspective is flat, spatiality is evaporated.
Materiality is negative, reduced to trappings' Alleland is burnt out, burnt down, dried up, hard
and grim. Scratched, bruised, torn, muddy, chipped and decayed. Alleland is a prophecy.
*Alleland: 'Alle' translates mostly into 'all-' and ‘everyone’ but also into: 'empty', 'used-up-' or ' burnt out-'. ‘Land’ translates into 'country' or 'land'.
