Landscape can be understood as environmental systems, as cultural outlines, as time- or activity- based scapes. It can be frozen in a certain gaze. It can be transgressive. We might want to have it archived or sculpted but in reality it is often just an afterglow, a random happening, a blasted territory left by most human and non-human species.
What does it mean today to look at the landscape? Who and why is considered as a part of it?

The concept might serve as a starting point or ending question to your personal project.
