The profile of the cliffs where the sea defences have been put in look very artificial. Note the appearance of Tertiary beds above the chalk - this is unique to a short stretch of coast between Peacehaven and Cuckmere Haven

Shot of the railway line to show how difficult it is to see the Pill Boxes, the beach is on the right of the track, with the pill boxes on the left.
So many of these fish - all defending their little corners of paradise with passions - kept flying directly at my camera, bouncing off the lens - managed to get one shot almost in focus!

Even after the exhibition EU in 2017, Fujiwara continues to examine visual violence and its display. The EU installation originated from one of his primary influences: the MoMA's 1942 exhibition design for The Road to Victory: a procession of photographs of the nation at war, directed by Lt. Cmdr. Edward Steichen (appointed by the US Navy), and designed by Austrian-American architect Herbert Bayer.
The installation work Panorama of Defence (2018) is Fujiwara's further examination of the display method of photography, based on Herbert Bayer's theory of exhibition design, by using the photographer's depictions which pertain to the body. Various details —Medieval Knight, Livestocks, Riot Police and their Video Camera— were configured on graphic software and printed out, mapped into physical space according to the monitor. Velcro stripes, which Fujiwara borrows from the contemporary bulletproof jacket design, are transformed into grid guides of the program, becoming the support of the body images. As a result, the elements of visual language hover as graphic data, i.e. preprint.
(The 1942 exhibition Road to Victory was supposed to be titled "Panorama of Defence" initially. Nevertheless, the Attack on Pearl Harbor triggered the Pacific War, and thus, the name was changed to "Road to Victory".)
German politicians dream of Germany becoming the leading conventional military power in Europe in the future. The money for a gigantic defence budget has now been approved by parliament. However, the mental attitude of the population, the majority of whom, according to surveys, refuse to fight with weapons themselves in the event of defence, is a problem for those in power. Events such as the 1st Veterans' Day are intended to help counteract this.
Deutsche Politiker träumen davon, dass Deutschland in Zukunft die führende konventionelle Militärmacht Europas wird. Das Geld für einen gigantischen Verteidigungshaushalt wurde jetzt vom Parlament bewilligt. Doch die mentale Einstellung der Bevölkerung, die Umfragen zufolge mehrheitlich ablehnt im Verteidigungsfall selber mit der Waffe zu kämpfen, macht den Regierenden zu schaffen. Veranstaltungen wie der 1. Veteranentag sollen dazu beitragen dem entgegenzuwirken.
