How do you like my landscape
Manah Depauw and Bernard Van Eeghem
www.margaritaproduction.be
With How do you like my landscape, Manah Depauw and Bernard Van Eeghem use a sharp imagination to redefine the place of the human body within our society, which, they believe, is still pray to a puritanical eye and political correctness.
By means of slight manipulation – disconcerting in its simplicity – Depauw and Van Eeghem remove the human body from its normal context and replace it in unexpected situations.
The ‘spectacle’ – presented in four episodes – takes place around a landscape where the apparent tranquillity only serves to camouflage terrible beasts that, given the chance, would awaken in us all those desires that we prefer to remain hidden.
The episodes are each separated by 2000 years and are presented in a poignant and at times hilarious manner, played out on a specially constructed set, reminiscent of the work of British humorist Michael Bentine.
