«To inhabit», from the Latin «habitare», means to occupy a place, to live in it. Hence Heidegger’s claim that “we are, to the extent that we inhabit”. This appropriation of a place involves building it, modifying it, intervening in it. That intervention or manipulation gives rise to new social, political or aesthetic readings, shapìng a new kind of landscape. This exhibition looks at the work of five contemporary photographers with a shared interest in the landscape and our intervention in it, through the act of inhabiting.
