travels, disorientation and back

Last year while waiting in one of the numerous waiting lounges at zurich airport to board my flight that signified the end of my adventures and the beginnings of my integration back into customary life, i noticed and curious journal titled 'The journal of Disorientation' -  by Christian Vetter
Finding the cover worthy of closer inspection i flicked through the predominantly visual compilation of common scenes juxta posed with their tacit opposites (suggestive i pressume of the stated 'disorientation'). Although the journal itself was not capable of such urgency standing alone, when arriving back in Australia and to my computer i discovered i was merely a week or so late of seeing the Shifting Identities – Zurich Airport Exhibition. Showcasing a collection of contemporary artist artworks incorporated into the entire airport, such as Aleksandra Mir, Brian Eno - musician, San Keller, Nedko Solakov...

These are some photos of the work Aleksandra Mir's exhitbited, title 'plane landing'.
