J'adore les paysages inventés de Leaf Beeferman ; son travail est varié par la forme et très constant par son propos.
I adore the invented landscapes of Leaf Beeferman ; his work is varied by the form and very constant by its matter.

''In my work, I transform elements from my surroundings into interconnected, fantastical landscapes. By removing these structures and objects from their familiar contexts and making them interact, I redefine their roles and relationships. I assemble these objects—individually enlivened by imagination and focused research—into a variety of scenes. There, the real and unreal resemble and reflect one another.''
