Despite my alarming lack of interest in the matters of Mars or space itself, I can admit that I am taken with the consequence of the production of the book itself, if less the subject matter, which still has, despite my stated claims of aversion and seething annoyance, some exciting prospects at its base. It would be bad manners not to look at Nicolai, a respected Danish artist, and his work with anything but respect.

»Jeg elsker at bruge fotografiet til at kigge på noget, jeg ikke forstår. Det er min måde at se verden på. Det er en eller anden robot, der render rundt og tager billeder på Mars, og så siger man ’fuck, mand, der har været vand’, ’der har været iskapper’, ’der er poler’, jeg skal komme efter dig«. ...

Howalts svartvita bilder skapar en sorts utsträckt kollage av olika exponeringar från samma plats och vinkel av samma träd. Fastän att det är kopior av samma bild, ger de en stark förnimmelse av förändring över tid.

Old Tjikko evokes that “mythological power” as a “tangible image of eternity.” “To me,” he says, “Old Tjikko almost becomes a sort of archetype of this duality because of its high age.” It’s a comment on our relationship, or really our lack of a relationship, to eternity. ...

This is not a tree. It is a series of images of a tree, all one and the same. As if they are trying to sustain it. But the tree disappears. Into fog, or is it dusk, or night arriving? It vanishes into shifting shades of color. Where is it? ...

As the saying goes: You cannot see the forest for the trees. But what does it actually mean? That the big picture, the whole, will disappear in favor of the singular?
