Resonanz
2019

Landscape to me always seemed to be a very stable moment – a feeling of permanence as an actuality. But nothing exists out of itself, everything is always in a moment of constant change.

Not able to comprehend the time and space dimensions of the nature surrounding us we take a mountain or a lake as a solid structure as a stable entity.

I had to think of the discrepancy of being in the moment and focusing on thinking in a conceptual way. Of understanding the nature that surrounds us while at the same time being part of it, inseparable as a moment of cognition and a codependent living.

Slightly altering the landscape of lake Como – reshaping the topography by removing the tip of the highest mountain in the area, Mt. San Primo, and dropping it at the deepest part of the adjacent lake, I wanted to slightly move these two opposing positions closer together.

None of this is necessarily visible or important and nothing was really added or disappeared. This is just a futile attempt to reposition an element that would eventually come together on its own terms, the same way it came to exist now, over the course of time.
