Capturing the essence of dawn's gentle caress over the serene Glencoe landscape, this exquisite cubist interpretation presents a captivating dance of geometry and light. Onlookers are transported to a world where nature's organic intricacies meet the stark lines and vibrant planes of cubism, sparking a delightful visual dialogue. Amidst the scene, wood sorrels gracefully emerge, their white blossoms standing in elegant contrast against the rich greens and earthy browns that depict the flourishing flora. These delicate flowers, illuminated by the soft morning light, offer a playful yet tranquil focal point, harmoniously balanced by the vivid orange tones of nearby blooms. The background unveils a symphony of fragmented shapes, depicting the rolling hills and majestic mountains of Glencoe. These geological marvels are rendered in overlapping hues of green and blue, creating a sense of depth that draws the eye across the winding valleys and peaks. Complementing the organic forms, a winding river reflects the sky's azure, with stylized ripples that suggest the gentle flow of water. This river guides the viewer's gaze through the composition, acting as a natural pathway amidst the abstraction. In this piece, every brushstroke contributes to a dynamic panorama that captures not just the visual splendour of Glencoe, but also the timeless dance between light and shadow, form and space. This print promises to be a mesmerising addition to any space, inviting contemplation and conversation alike.

AA Landscape Urbanism Aeolian Sand Odyssey is the design thesis of Anastasia Kotenko and Niki Kakali: Abstract: From a line on the plan, the political border between Lithuania and the Russian ex-clave becomes a territory of negotiations involving diverse interests in-between counteracting forces. Our proposal is to open active corridors for dunes, an inherent dynamic landscape trapped within fixed environments and UNESCO’s conservation policies, which shift according to their time cycle and that of forest formations, thus negotiating between the cultural, social and economic land values in the Curonian territory.
