“Landscape#2” is to be intended as a metaphor for working-class alienation.
Imagined inside a factory, the work illusorily recalls the comforting view of a mountain landscape, synthetically evoked through descriptive data.
In fact, the iron through which the landscape is 'drawn', set apart from the surface plane, represents the rupture from the real world, which is replaced by a conception of time based on productivity and efficiency.
The result is a deprivation not only of the natural landscape, but also of the human connection with the environment and its vital rhythms; a counter-landscape, therefore, as a reflection of the alienation of the worker from the cycles of nature and the world's wonders.
