For the series ‘Land of Nothingness‘, Belgian photographer Maroesjka Lavigne traveled to Namibia where she captured serene photographs of its vast landscape. The calm atmosphere in the images is dominated by pale hues of the desert and spotted with wildlife. At the same time, Lavigne seems to explore the themes of solitude and slowness in her photographs. Living and working in Ghent, Lavigne graduated from Ghent University with a Masters in Photography and has since then shown her work in various exhibitions around the world.

In a statement about the series, Lavigne says: “Patience is required to discover the wide range of Namibia’s ever-changing scenery. It literally takes you hours driving though nothing to arrive at… more of nothing. The sight of other people is rare and only the strategically located gas stations are a reminder of the world beyond.”

]]> With its 55 million years the Namib desert is the oldest desert in the world. Loosely translated the name means something like a place where nothing exists. Surrounded by endless plains, sand and the sea you find yourself in an hostile environment. An unreal place that harbors a rough beauty. The countless sand dunes change their intensive color depending on the sun and moisture content. Structures alter with light. At the northern part the skeleton coast extends with its ship cemetery where many ships and whales stranded at the coast, leaving behind an eerie atmosphere. The german photographer Anke Nunheim had the opportunity to capture this rugged belle from the air on her journey through Namibia. The seclusion, silence and vastness continue to have an effect when you already feel the ground under your feet again.
