Diplomacy - Jan Theuninck, 2015

the logic of multi-level games

For peace

we have to fight a war
against terror
against psychological terror
against psychopathical leaders
we have to fight a war
— Jan Theuninck

Diplomacy, we can see the world over that this is no easy feat. I am attacted to the magicianship of this visual poetry… how foreground comes forward and recedes into an abyss how a cloud of grey casts two shadows, the undulation of the land and the intensity of the light and colour.  Not many images can be turned any direction and still satisfy.  (Rebecca Guyver in The Postal Ledger, July 14, 2020)
