These are a typical examples of home craft, a local and often very intensive form of cultural production. Cami is also interested in the back of these textile works. Whereas the front depicts an idyllic, nostalgic, pre-industrial landscape, the back shows the maker\u0026rsquo;s toil and plodding. Cami cuts horned masks from the back of the landscapes. The masks refer to half-human creatures from folktales that usually express the fascinations and fears within a community. The specific characteristics of the landscape also often play an important role in the nature of the stories that arise. After scanning the back of the landscapes, the images are enlarged and screen printed on burlap with puffing ink creating a kind of trompe-l\u0026rsquo;oeil effect.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eVoor \u003cem\u003eThe Landscape Stares Back I (\u0026amp; II)\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003evertrekt Ignace Cami van met wol geknoopte landschappen die hij in tweedehandswinkels vond. Ze vormen een typisch voorbeeld van huisvlijt, een lokale en vaak zeer intensieve vorm van culturele productie. Cami is ook ge\u0026iuml;nteresseerd in de achterkant van deze textielwerken. Want hoewel de voorzijde een idyllisch, nostalgisch, pre-industrieel landschap uitbeeldt, toont de achterkant het zwoegen en ploeteren van de maker. Cami knipt gehoornde maskers uit de landschappen. De maskers verwijzen naar half menselijke wezens uit volksverhalen die meestal de fascinaties en angsten binnen een gemeenschap vertolken. Ook de specifieke kenmerken van het landschap spelen vaak een belangrijke rol in de aard van de verhalen die er ontstaan. Na het inscannen van de achterzijden, worden de beelden uitvergroot en gezeefdrukt op jute met puff inkt: een speciale, schuimende inkt die ervoor zorgt dat de inkt gaat zwellen. Hierdoor ontstaat er een soort trompe-l\u0026#39;oeil effect. De abstract aandoende kleurvlekken worden pas leesbaar op afstand.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003ePour \u003cem\u003eThe landscape stares back\u003c/em\u003e, Ignace Cami part de textiles artisanaux en laine repr\u0026eacute;sentant des paysages qu\u0026rsquo;il a trouv\u0026eacute;s dans des boutiques d\u0026rsquo;occasion. Ils constituent un exemple typique de travail au foyer, une forme locale et souvent tr\u0026egrave;s intensive de production culturelle. Cami s\u0026rsquo;int\u0026eacute;resse \u0026eacute;galement \u0026agrave; l\u0026rsquo;arri\u0026egrave;re de ces textiles. Car, si le recto d\u0026eacute;peint un paysage idyllique, nostalgique et pr\u0026eacute;industriel, le verso montre le labeur et la besogne de celui ou celle qui l\u0026rsquo;a produit. Dans les paysages, Cami d\u0026eacute;coupe des masques \u0026agrave; cornes en r\u0026eacute;f\u0026eacute;rence \u0026agrave; des cr\u0026eacute;atures mi-humaines issues de contes populaires, qui incarnent en g\u0026eacute;n\u0026eacute;ral les fascinations et les peurs r\u0026eacute;gnant au sein d\u0026rsquo;une communaut\u0026eacute;. Les caract\u0026eacute;ristiques sp\u0026eacute;cifiques du paysage jouent souvent un r\u0026ocirc;le important dans la nature des histoires qui y \u0026eacute;mergent. Apr\u0026egrave;s avoir scann\u0026eacute; les versos, Cami agrandit les images et les s\u0026eacute;rigraphie ensuite sur de la toile de jute \u0026agrave; l\u0026rsquo;aide d\u0026rsquo;encre bouffie (une encre sp\u0026eacute;ciale, moussante, qui gonfle et cr\u0026eacute;e ainsi du relief).
