Land Noorderlicht : country life in the urban age

Catalogue accompanying the seventeenth Noorderlicht International Photofestival. More than half the world's population now lives in cities, but the cost to rural areas and ways of life is still being counted. 'Land' takes stock of what remains of country life in a time of depopulation, global mass production and new media, presenting a poignant study of economic, cultural and ecological decline and flux.
