Seen from a material perspective, the landscape that we thoughtfully look at and upon which we build our dreams and expectations, is mainly formed of stones and different kinds of minerals. They are the essence of the natural world and make up the foundation of all the continents and mountains. In a world ruled by human hands, these same materials have also been one of the main sources of material for the creation of cities, houses, monuments and also tools for the making of objects and jewellery.
