By titling this new series 'Horizon', Danckaert establishes a rich and evocative metaphor. A horizon is an illusory line, not a real one. It is unattainable, since it moves away from us as we approach it, yet it divides everything we see into two categories : that which touches the earth's surface and that which does not. The horizon has no materiality. It is not a thing or a place but an idea - the idea of separation between earth and sky and, as such, it represents the limit of what we can see or even imagine.

Bert Danckaert (base in Antwerp, Belgium) travels world in search of compelling pictures that strike the right balance between pure abstraction and stilled urban metaphors.
