Landscape dif­fers from land becau­se of the pro­ces­sing by human per­cep­ti­on. People expe­rien­ce their envi­ron­ment holis­ti­cally by using all their sen­ses simul­ta­neous­ly, trans­for­ming the land — through bodi­ly and empi­ri­cal expe­rien­ce — into a mind­s­ca­pe. In this flag, the usu­al ter­mi­no­lo­gy and rati­o­nal num­bers that cali­bra­te the ruler — are repla­ced by phy­si­cal noti­ons and rela­ti­o­nal gestu­res (f.e. con­text, care, sce­ne) that ques­ti­on the para­me­ters of both exter­nal (urban) as inter­nal (human) spa­ce. The tool, nor­mal­ly applied for the devel­op­ment of small sca­le models and design plans, is here­by con­ver­se­ly enlar­ged to archi­tec­tu­ral dimen­si­ons. The flag is an invita­ti­on for the vie­wer to expe­ri­ment with dif­fe­rent per­spec­ti­ves on the cityscape.

This flag was the first one in an ongo­ing series of artis­t’s flags that will be pre­sen­ted as a col­la­bo­ra­ti­on bet­ween Off the Grid and 019 (Ghent).
