Movement is also very central in ‘CASA’. It starts with waves overflowing a wall. The element water. A close-up of elbows rubbing a rough surface. Two hands are grabbing a face covered in clay. Touch...

Lukas Marxt
High Tide hypnotically fixes its gaze on a landscape that’s either prehuman or postapocalyptic, but definitely a timeless arrangement in shades of gray — Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness.

THE STREET

Jef Cornelis
The street is more like a machine of movement equipped to make traffic run smoothly than, in its original and spontaneous form, a breeding ground for life.

Residential areas have turned into traffic zones; inhabitants are pushed back into their homes...
