And yet there is a certain beauty in this constant metamorphosis of the landscape that both writer Fox and photographer Brouws disregard: the landscape is alive and changing from one year to the next, even if it is not necessarily “for the better.” Brouws describes his approach as a blend of “documentary and interpretive,” an interesting combination which raises the question...
