jasonguilbeau: ShelterlandShelterland is both work and play around Swiss fortifications. In a form where idyllic alpine landscapes meet sci-fi concrete monsters out of a spy novel, we find a country where peace is erected as a prime principle. To confuse both unsuspecting mountain hikers and possible invaders, every trick is employed to blend into the surroundings : fake barns, fake villas, fake alpine chalets, fake rocks even… Around 8000 bunkers have thus been submitted to a precise work of camo. Most of those surround the country at its borders in a concrete belt, a testament to Switzerland as an island of resistance in the middle of the European Union. No contemporary war since World War Two has warranted the use of the concrete sentinels ; they remain, though, useless and aimless.http://www.jasonguilbeau.com/fr/portfolio-79087-0-40-shelterland.html -- source link
