brand new animals:
1998-2000 Playful work examining the image of nature, its construction and mediation. Photographs of mountains, plants, animals and landscapes situated between cliché and subjective experience, collective longing and personal memory, presented as a book sequence. The photographs were taken at zoos, outdoors in nature, in an Imax 180° theatre, from posters, magazines or video games, etc. Intended as documentary photography, none of the pictures has been digitally altered. Seen, experienced and captured on film, then applied to the book medium. The titles are listed alphabetically only, generating images in the viewer’s mind, calling for pictures and visuals. Pictures that might be contained in the book. Or perhaps elsewhere... For exhibitions, the work is presented in different ways: As site-adjusted, photographic installations using various materials: Airbrush on cloth and satin, Inkjet on paper or canvas, c-prints, laser prints. As slide projection with video of actor reading out the alphabetical titlelist, asynchronous to the projection |
