Description: Lost Lands, a series of landscapes, 2003/4.This is a series of landscapes with lost land as the subject. These works refer to primal land, the bygone earth, the early world which has, in reality, nearly disappeared. But our former surroundings were a part of this ancient world that remains deep in our collective, primal subconscious. We seem to recognize and grasp this knowledge of our connection with our origins instinctively, although they remain faded and almost forgotten memories.I want, with this series, to recall those subconscious memories, to bring this lost land back, reconstruct it.The sunset in a burning sky in each of these works asserts the awareness of and dramatizes the passage of time.Peter Hei
