I created a landscape from photos taken in the same place at different times by digitally assembling them, much like a collage. By playing with colours and lines, I put these photos together to create a falsely imaginary landscape. Faced with mountains that seem immutable, indestructible, the urge to upset this natural architecture is too strong. Through this gesture of rearranging the landscape, I symbolically appropriate this environment in order to shape it according to my own will. This need for ownership, which a first seems trivial, becomes problematic when it is carried out by billions of people in certain sectors of economic life. What seemed immutable then, now seems extremely fragile. Glaciers are melting, moraines are being affected; the mountain is breaking. Welcome to my “anthropic” landscape.
