Art & caractèreDescription: 1 vol. (91 p.) : ill. ; 21 cmISBN: 9782360970322.Classification: 803Abstract: « Reveries » “Reveries”, an invitation to enter a waking dream. Geographical travel, mental peregrinations. As you stride along with sweat and dust, the land becomes the medium, an infinite sequence of patterns. Raging, the elements transform the horizon into nothingness. Space is silence. There is a willed absence of visual cues. As you hunt for chimeras, reality blurs. The eye searches for meaning. Interpretation and imagination are set free. So starts an inner voyage, to the heart of the dream. “Reveries”, an anthology of memories of wild places which, tomorrow, may no longer be wild. Some are already gone. Evaporated. Uncertain. Although remote from civilisation, they are exposed to the menace of Man, of industrialisation, of the faltering climate. Man's presence is felt even in places where he is absent. The Earth has become ephemeral. Photos become memory. Sculpted by eternal winds, dunes in their millions ripple sensuously. Stripped raw, fading into the mists of distance, monstrous forms of ice shatter. In the profound melancholy of the mists, the Andes are drowning in their grief. Inside the secret world of South American wilderness, before it becomes nothing but a dream..
