Marginal Worlds teaches that the more we see surrounding us the less we can focus on in front of us. What does the image of this landscape say about the nature of this place? What connections have been made here or even broken in the same place. Images such as this one can say so much about the mysterious nature of the people who live or have lived here. However, an image cannot tell the viewer the history of the landscape. It only captures the here and now and the viewer can make their own story behind the image. The dimly lit pathway, the romanticised lighting, the clean architectural lines, the well-kept garden, the windows seem to say that outsiders can only see what the owner chooses to show them. They only get a small glimpse into the life of the owner. The planning of the house took into account the privacy of the owner and the incorporation of a modern style and a small amount of nature.
