“Horizon is the perfect mix between reality and abstraction. It’s reality and abstraction at the same time. It’s three-dimensional and flat at the same time; it’s mathematical and romantic. It’s just what you make out of it. And it’s a very mysterious line, besides the fact that it’s actually a curve. It’s something you see and believe, but at the same time if you look at it, you really can’t believe that it’s there. So, you have no grip of it, you can’t catch it; the only way to catch is to photograph it, but the photo is unreal as anything else. It’s a make-believe reality, it’s the ideal form where you can have intuition and mathematics mixed together. That’s exactly the reason why it’s so attractive.” J. Dibbets
