A Geological Index of the Landscape

Benoît Jeannet – A Geological Index of the Landscape

A Geological Index of the Landscape covers the invention of landscape and its genesis through representation. This work is inspired by the frenetic human need to want to down scale the world to make it one’s own. The project is built around the permanent human conflict between the emotional and rationalism. Fascination with the world’s mysteries and geological shapes confronts the man’s absurd and obsessive need to put the extraordinary into boxes.
