In our times art became something that in order to be valued has be filled with a ‘meaningful’ message, a political proposition. Personally it feels like decontextualising art from any environmental influence through white cube galleries in an elitist culture while demanding a re-contextualisation through ‘exterior’ information makes modern art rather inaccessible. Additionally though, it feels like that artworks are often blatant and 1-dimensional, only asking rather ‘simple’ questions or being a mere latching comment to a controversial thematic. While it is hard to pinpoint, what I don’t appreciate about many modern artworks, I dislike content being reducible to an explicit message. | In our times art became something that in order to be valued has be filled with a ‘meaningful’ message, a political proposition.

On a technical standpoint I could rewrite the grass-shader to enable the volumetric fog possibility. I grew quite fond of the island in the sky / eternal platform / plain above the clouds look, but it might still be worthwhile having a look at an endless plain. | On a technical standpoint I could rewrite the grass-shader to enable the volumetric fog possibility.

On a conceptual standpoint I ask myself if the player feels (completely unintentionally) isolated or trapped. On the other hand, I question myself (contrary to my statement in the beginning) if distancing myself from graspable political propositions or of other kind renders my work meaningless. | On a conceptual standpoint I ask myself if the player feels (completely unintentionally) isolated or trapped.
