The speech of Roger Grasas focuses on the reflection on the Nature-Culture dichotomy and presents the experience of the trip as the guiding thread of the same project, transferring his experiences and reflections to the field of visual arts. The core of his work investigates the connexions between history and territory, the role that technology shows within the postmodern digital society and the state of alienation and confusion experienced by the human being in the context of the contemporary landscape.
