Monch
In the Bernese Alps, Thomas Crauwels faces the Mönch, a peak which, despite its lesser notoriety within the Eiger-Mönch-Jungfrau triptych, is not lacking in majesty and character. For Thomas Crauwels, the Mönch is a mountain that arouses curiosity, a colossus that reveals itself in different guises, sometimes an impenetrable wall from Grindelwald, sometimes an expanse of hanging glaciers seen from the Jungfraujoch. Its beauty, unique and changing according to perspective, makes it one of the most aesthetically pleasing peaks in the Bernese Alps.
For Thomas, the mountain is an open book on the infinite, a space where man, faced with the grandeur of the world, can measure his own quest for meaning. The Mönch, in its sublime simplicity, represents for him an essential chapter in this quest, an inexhaustible source of emotion and reflection. It is this profound, almost intimate relationship with the Mönch that Thomas Crauwels seeks to share through his works, offering everyone the chance to experience, in their own way, the beauty and majesty of the Alpine world.
