Landscapes of food, she made. Once she had a cloud of light hover above a lake. She formed a white mountain of folds and creases.
It’s as if her work be-landscapes your gaze. It hands you a pair of landscape glasses. A filter. She sharpens looking, invites a search for geomorphological coherence. That, in a landscape nutshell, is the work of Rain Wu.
As if she puts on a kind of landscape-glasses — a landscape filter, if you will. She recalibrates perception, makes the eye search for geomorphological coherence. That, in a (landscapish) nutshell, is the work of Rain Wu.
Next, at the invitation of Rita Hoofwijk, she will show a line. This summer, during Oerol festival, a line will appear on the Island that is Terschelling. We don’t know how. Yet. She will inspire us to distinguish a border between culture and nature, between human ground and flora-fauna land.
In January, Rain and Rita travel to Terschelling to explore both the landscape and the line.
