Balancing on Europe’s fault line.
The Open Road - Into the Wild East explores the fracture lines of modern Europe where progress turns sterile and freedom becomes digitized.
Blending photography and text, Van Mook films a road movie on paper 33 rides through a continent running on fumes.
His prose is stripped to the bone, his gaze unflinching. No nostalgia. No faith in what comes next. Only motion the last instinct left.
A book about the slow collapse of meaning a world in aspic, civilisation In reverse.
