As well as other photo books designed by Hans Gremmen, this one also shows a fascinating combination of photography and its printing techniques. When you open the book, you might wonder what you are exactly looking at: are these black and white landscapes computer renders or real photographs? This illusion makes this photo book bizarre and interesting. The artist applies a technique of combining computer modelling and analogue photographic processes. The intense glossy black reinforces the impression of these high contrast images and shows a virtual exploration of the used technology.
