<< Conceived by Wagener and brought into existence by de Pape, Pillars of the Earth is a take on the current state of the humain condition and the society we live in. It is a reflexion on power, ethics, and defiance in a frightening, distressing and dysfunctional system. Presenting themselves as bright, colourful and transparent but nevertheless highly problematic in their present form, four key elements of the ever so complex structure that is modern day society, are questionned on their integrity, sustainabilty and their over all impact on mankind and the planet. These concepts often appear abstract and futile, but once you see the whole picture, they reveal themselves to be in our image.>> JW
