Vespino was a Mobylette-style moped produced by Moto Vespa from 1968 up to the early 2000’s, when the Madrid factory closed after Piaggio changed hands. As a transport alternative, it was cheap and reliable, with a low-maintenance, forced air-cooled 49 cc engine.

Kampong-Chhnang (Cambodge) - Je circulais à scooter pour me rendre au village flottant, lorsque la mousson s'est abattue sur Kampong-Chhnang. N'étant pas équipé pour la pluie, j'ai dû m'arrêter pour me mettre à l'abri sous une bâche.
En attendant que cesse l'averse, j'en ai profité pour faire quelques photos des courageux qui poursuivaient leur chemin.
Monsoon rain
Kampong-Chhnang (Cambodia) - I was riding a scooter to reach the floating village when the monsoon suddenly hit Kampong-Chhnang.
Not being equipped for the rain, I had to stop to take shelter under a tarpaulin. While waiting for the downpour to stop, I took the opportunity to take some pictures of the courageous people who continued on their way.

Comment mesurer le progrès? Plus grand est-il toujours meilleur et plus petit toujours plus puissant? L'intervention humaine est-elle toujours nécessaire ou évoluons-nous de toute façon? Et le progrès est-il toujours bénéfique? Tel est le questionnement posé dans Pinpointing Progress, l'œuvre de Maarten Vanden Eynde. Dans cette sculpture, il attache plusieurs réalisations modernes entre elles. À une époque, les bus, les mobylettes, les vélos et les radios étaient considérés comme les technologies les plus avancées. Au XXe siècle, ces inventions ont été exportées avec fierté tant par l'Occident que l'URSS. C'était même une course pour être le plus à la pointe, car cela confirmerait la supériorité d'une idéologie. Cette sculpture a initialement été réalisée pour la Biennale de Riga en 2018, où l'on ne produit désormais plus que l'élément supérieur de la brochette, le plus petit, à savoir le transistor. La tour de Maarten Vanden Eynde est ainsi une représentation visuelle de la vitesse de l'évolution.
La construction de Pinpointing Progress renvoie aux musiciens de Brême, le conte des frères Grimm, dans lequel quatre animaux âgés et maltraités unissent leurs forces pour fuir leurs maîtres ingrats. Cette histoire témoigne des mauvaises conditions de travail et des rudes pratiques qui montrent souvent le revers de la médaille quand on parle de progrès. Pensez par exemple aux constructions que Léopold II a fait réaliser le long de la côte belge, telles que le port de Zeebruges, la route du littoral et la gare d'Ostende. Ce roi, qui a commis des atrocités figurant parmi les pires de l'Histoire, a fait de la côte une région mondaine. Or il l'a fait avec l'argent qu'il a gagné sur le dos du peuple congolais. Aujourd'hui, quand on pense au progrès technologique, on pense aux développements des géants du numérique tels que Google ou Apple, qui incitent encore à l'esclavage des enfants dans leur quête de minerais au Congo. La violation des droits de l'homme semble être indissolublement liée à la modernisation. Pinpointing Progressdresse prudemment le bilan et ouvre les yeux sur le fait que la Tour du progrès s'effondrera elle aussi peut-être un jour.
How to measure progress? Is bigger always better and smaller always more powerful? Is human intervention still necessary or are we evolving anyway? And is progress always beneficial? Such is the questioning posed in Pinpointing Progress, the work of Maarten Vanden Eynde. In this sculpture, he ties several modern creations together. At one time, buses, mopeds, bicycles and radios were considered the most advanced technologies. In the twentieth century, these inventions were exported with pride both by the West and the USSR. It was even a race to be the most advanced, because that would confirm the superiority of an ideology. This sculpture was originally made for the Riga Biennale in 2018, where only the upper part of the skewer, the smallest, is now produced, namely the transistor. Maarten Vanden Eynde's tower is thus a visual representation of the speed of evolution.
The construction of Pinpointing Progress returns to the musicians of Bremen, the tale of the Brothers Grimm, in which four aged and abused animals join forces to flee their ungrateful masters. This story is a testament to the poor working conditions and harsh practices that often show the other side of the coin when it comes to progress. Think, for example, of the constructions that Leopold II had built along the Belgian coast, such as the port of Zeebrugge, the coastal road and the Ostend train station. This king, who committed some of the worst atrocities in history, made the coast a worldly region. But he did it with the money he earned on the backs of the Congolese people. Today, when we think of technological progress, we think of the developments of digital giants such as Google or Apple, which still encourage the slavery of children in their quest for minerals in the Congo. The violation of human rights seems to be inextricably linked with modernization. Pinpointing Progress takes a careful stock and opens our eyes to the fact that the Tower of Progress may also collapse one day.

Cambodge - Pendant que les hommes s’affairent à construire une nouvelle maison, au moins trois générations s’entassent dans des huttes d’une dizaine de mètres carrés. Mais frères, soeurs, cousins continueront encore longtemps à cohabiter sur le même lopin de terre. Les adolescents rêvent désormais de posséder une mobylette et un smartphone.

But brothers, sisters, cousins will continue to live together on the same piece of land for a long time to come. Only the youngest now dream of owning a moped and a smartphone.
