Model Landscapes

Oasis, 2007

Descriptions of fantastic landscapes and imaginary places by Jules Verne or Robert Walser serve as the basis for the three-dimensional models of landscapes. Walser's remark on how the 'gentle green adornment of trees', and 'enchantment of benign meadows' is missing in metropolises prompted the creation of miniature landscapes. (quote: Robert Walser, Der Spazierang, 1917)
