Scapes – The world as you’ve never seen it before

Jan 25, 2012 by César Couto    No Comments    Posted under: Photography

Wouter van Buuren is not only a photographer, he is also an acrobat. After climbing onto cranes, rooftops and other risky locations, often challenging the law and putting his own life in danger, he makes urban and rural landscape photo collages. Van Buuren brings the world to the palm of our hands by creating globe-shaped panoramic images that give us the illusion of all-round world surveillance. Particularly he is interested in the experience of space. By merging more pictures into one large image he creates new spaces in which reality may be imaginable. Since 2006 Wouter makes ‘total landscapes’ in which the entire scenery is visible. To achieve this he photographs from electricity towers, cranes, high rise buildings and bridges. Check his website to check his full portfolio.
