Trajected Landscapes (Mouvance)

About trajection: The title refers to the concept of Trayección coined by the geographer Augustin Berque:

“Like all environmental things, the reality of an object is not only physical (or objective), or only mental (or subjective); is trajective.

This is a totally different thing to an unambiguous projection of mental representations on the physical environment, ie to go from the  subject only to the subject, and neither of data that would, conversely, but also completely unambiguous way, from the object towards the subject. In our relationship with the world, the perception is moving steadily between subject and object. ”

For me this idea of trajection create what I call synthetic haze: a kind of blurring caused by the lack of boundaries between the subject and object, between the landscape and the viewer…

The term mouvance also refers Berque according to both the evolutionary movement of the landscape and of the ideas that built it.
