Terra Incognita
The central theme of one of my long-term projects is the domestication of nature, which encompasses both exterior and inner space as concepts on aesthetics.
Landscape in its self is in its origin a concept, which roots in the beginning of industrialization and renaissance painting.
Seen as a concept, landscape therefore represents an image of an idea. We declare what an ideal landscape looks like and represent it in a photographic reproduction.
Electronic media have also created new landscapes via the influence of television, space flight, satellite imagery and new virtual digital technologies. These technologies play a central role in mediating our contact with landscape by offering instantaneous access to information creating a further acceleration and shrinking of time and space and leading to issues related to decontextualization of experience.
Using Google Street View I roam in algorithmic spheres and create landscapes originated from our very earth but as a result never seen before.
