Shadow in the landscape
All experiences in our lives shape our work…
What is my relationship to this landscape?
How does this relationship influence my work?
Isolation
Escapism
Liminality
Shrinking
Anonymity
Irrelevance of self
Macropsia
Finding self
Inhabitiveness
Belonging
Other
Blurred realities
Distorted perceptions
Imagined aerial view
Memory view, not a real view
Why do I take so many shadow photographs? Why do I chose to represent myself in the landscape in this way? What do these self portraits mean? A way to control my image within the landscape. Hiding, not fully seen. Over the landscape, projection onto the ground/land.
The shadow leaves no trace. You can still see the ground beneath, not opaque. Lack of solidity.
What do I leave behind? Nothing? Footsteps only? Prints only? A change in the shape of the air.
Interested in traces of human occupation, disturbances on the land, others not my own.
