Publisher Note

Frederik Buyckx captures his wanderings in nature, highlighting the beauty and terror of nature.
He is drawn to places where people still live in close proximity to nature.
Over the past decade, he has spent long periods of time in the mountains, in search of answers and inner peace. His wanderings were reflected in a handmade book that he received from his grandfather almost thirty years ago. It contains a fable with accompanying drawings in which Buyckx recognized his own quest for freedom and his affinity with nature. In a series of outstanding images, he captures both its splendor and ruthlessness. Nature doesn’t come to order and cannot be tamed; it cuts and it kills.

Published to accompany an exhibition at St Peter's Abbey, Ghent, from May 17 to August 18, 2024
