Many of the works of the Belgian photographer Jan Kempenaers are artistic presentations of fragments of our environment - landscapes, as we have come to call them. Some of these landscapes are "natural" ones and continue an overtly picturesque tradition, like for instance his arresting photographs of rocks and forest landscapes. Others may come across as "natural" but upon close examination they reveal the traces of man's intervention.

ベルギー人写真家Jan Kempenaersの作品の多くは、私たちを取り巻く環境 - 今ではランドスケープと呼ばれるようになったが - をアーティスティックに収めている。このランドスケープは、例えば岩や森を撮った印象的なランドスケープのように、「自然」をモチーフにした明らかに絵画的伝統を受け継いでいるものや、同じ「自然」でも、人の介在を感じさせるようなものもある。
