Tide - Land

Tide-land The Wadden Sea is a World Heritage Site and the largest contiguous wetland on earth and unique in the world. The wind, the salt and fresh water and the tide provide a unique dynamic landscape that is a food paradise for many animals. The sand flats and channels change course and seawater washes over the salt marshes. Weather, wind and tide determine the color, texture and atmosphere of the wetland. It is this endless dynamism that makes the Wadden Sea Region special. The islands from the Netherlands to Denmark mark the wetland with the North Sea.. All this is my backyard. During my walks colors, smells, sounds and the visual treats excite my senses. I captured this photographically. Then I made a collage image that consists of several layers from my memories, feeling, creativity and imagination. Color is one of them. Colors and emotions are closely linked. Primary colors such as red, green and blue elicit strong responses, while muted colors affect moods more subtly. The image that emerges is my tide-land.
