Post Arcadia
Fotografia Digitale, Paesaggio, Digitale, 50x50cm
These pictures reflect an aspect of my long-term project on the subject of landscape.
Landscape 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 depict it e.g. in a photographic reproduction.
In everyday life simulations of landscape and nature in relation of educative, scientific, recreational-oriented or economical contexts are ubiquitous. They not only influence our notion of nature in its derivation but also enhance implicitness of a designed environment.
The differentiation between image, copy, representation, simulation and finally simulacrum is increasingly more difficult.
The pictures of the series Post Arcadia indicate in content and form a room representing the above mentioned phenomena.
These are both implicit in the term of landscape and photography
