Spaces and territories

Industrial landscape

Refineries, chemical companies, mining and other heavy industry in the nocturnal hours. An almost surrealistic landscape of lightning, tubing, cooling towers, containers and chimneys. These nocturnal panoramas of industrial landscapes create peculiar, impressive and sensational pictures.

Character, like a photograph, develops in darkness.
Y. Karsh 1908-2002
 

Imaginary space

Imaginaire ruimte
Like many things, the decay of space is a witness of time. A desolate large space affected by time, without any sign of life or inspiration. It might be part of a much larger inspired reality. Or perhaps the vacuous scenery of a science fiction film.
The silence is frighteningly restful. Undefinable fragrances playing strange games. The air is constantly moving. Frosty draughts everywhere. You can hear the wind rustle. All the time, the silence is delicately disturbed. It makes the silence even more unpleasant. Strange noises reverberate through the space. Ticking, creaking, squeaking...
   

Landscape in black and white

Landscape in black and whiteWhen I have a terrible need of - shall I say the word - religion.
Then I go out and paint the stars.
Vincent Van Gogh 1853-1890

Mindscapes

Mindscapes
The subjects of these photographs seem to find themselves in an unreal environment, a huge space. Many associations are thrust upon us. For example, the queer world of the universe with all its stars and planets, or endless desolate plains and waste lands. Inhospitable and often inaccessible areas where humans have never been, or would rather never be. Outside the framework of the picture, the representations seem to continue endlessly. Boundless space in a timeless environment. Nothing is farther from the truth in this series of photographs.
Abstract entities like spatial quality are hard to describe, yet easier to depict. Welcome to the gigantic and imaginary ocean of time, space and chaos. Abstracties als ruimtelijke kwaliteit laten zich moeilijk verwoorden maar beter verbeelden. Welkom in de reusachtige en imaginaire oceaan van tijd, ruimte en chaos.
