jenseits der Waldgrenze
Beyond the timber line
au-dessus de limite de forêt

A landscape above the timber line takes its toll for our perception as well as the possibility of interactions. It means a great challenge in modelling specific contemporary art projects. Projects shall not only be developed in a conceptual way, but also by experiencing differences of emotions between virtual modelling and modelling on site. What is the difference of a perspective seen in a landscape and one seen in street views? Questions which might be raised in order to develop the curiosity for any contemporary visual approaches.
