Hilltop
Attempts was made on a small, undeveloped piece of family land and maps out a survey into the notion of land ownership. Through collecting, containing and marking different pieces of the landscape, the project explores the various geographical and topographical elements found within the lot. The apparently futile constructions depicted in the photographs aim to visualise the often illogical commodification of nature and question the ownership of something that exists in a constant state of flux. How does one own land and what does that ownership actually constitute of?
