Michael Najjar's video work liquid landscape, it is a visualisation of primordial geological energy and the tremendous transformative power of volcanoes. The video is based on spectacular, hitherto technically impossible footage shot by the artist together with an Icelandic drone pilot shortly after the eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland in March 2021.
Over several days, the two of them climbed the mountains of the Geldingadalir valley to approach the eruption craters from different angles. Fountains of lava shot up to 200 meters into the air while new fissures were continually opening and disgorging lava. In an 8 minute flight the camera moved over a newly born volcanic landscape. The video begins with a flight over an archaic-looking abstract landscape of intertwined stone formations. During the flight, the landscape becomes more and more liquefied and the camera always keeps a bird’s eye view of the increasing activity beneath it until it finally reaches the eruption crater and plunges into a Dantesque inferno.
On the acoustic level, a complex sound composition enlarges the increasingly dramatic happenings on the surface. The unusual immersive visuals draw viewers deeper and deeper into the landscape and let them feel the transformation process and the creative power of the Earth.

耐贾尔的影像作品《液态景观》是对原始地质能量和火山蕴含的变革力量的视觉化呈现。该影像基于一次无人机拍摄经历，2021年3月冰岛法格拉德尔斯菲亚尔（Fagradalsfjall）火山喷发后不久，艺术家与冰岛无人机飞行员共同拍摄下了这个壮观的画面，而这是迄今为止的技术都难以实现的。
短短数日，两人爬上盖尔丁达利尔山谷的高山，从不同角度接近火山喷发口。熔岩喷射直冲上200米高空，新的裂缝不断产生并喷出新的岩浆。在8分钟的飞行过程中，摄像机在新生的火山景观上盘旋。在影像的开头，镜头飞越了一个由交织的石阵组成的抽象景观，随着飞行移动，镜头中呈现逐渐液化的地貌，摄像机始终保持鸟瞰的视角，捕捉持续加剧的山体活动。直到最后无人机来到火山喷发口，坠入但丁式的地狱。
在声学层面，影像中的环绕声也放大了剧烈地表活动的观感。不同寻常的沉浸式效果将观众越拉越深，从而使人们感受到整个地球的转变过程和潜藏的创造力。
