This book features a series of drawings that portray the landscape between Vlassenbroek and Broekkant – made by workers, artists, and visitors, from nearby and far afield. The tradition had faded but it was revived as a slow and last-minute attempt to capture the fleeting landscape. Landscapes are elusive. They defy every attempt to commit them to paper. Rising sea levels and the inevitable heavy rainfall make Flanders a very dangerous place during spring tide. Government agencies and engineering firms work hard to keep the water in check. The River Schelde gets more space, dikes are moved… in a constantly shifting panorama.
