Foundland collective initiates autonomous projects. Foundlanders Dirk Vis, Ghalia Elsrakbi and Lauren Alexander are researchers, writers, artists and designers. With our own projects and working process, we forge new and unchartered territory within our disciplines, and with respect to the three continents from which we hail (Europe, Asia an Africa). Foundlanders bring new worlds, imaginary and virtual into site, by developing our own visual language for exhibitions, magazines, debates and websites.
