"Photographer Johannes Groht travelled half-way around the globe to see the Easter Island. Not to photograph the Moai, the well-known stone giants, but to take pictures of random tarmac-spillage on the edge of the island's only runway. Surely an unusual approach to the cultural landscape of Rapa Nui, but easy to comprehend and fascinating to look at!"

"This sequence of pictures is stimulating my fantasy. Great!"
