Artist Statement
My projects belong to a group of works in which, taking the landscape as a starting point, I have been exploring interrelations between the perceived, depicted and described. The major themes are; pictorial traditions and the articulation of the transformation from the three dimensional into the picture plane and vice versa, the landscape in relation to visibility and change, especially as mediated by culture or technology, as well as ideas of the vanishing, disappearing and almost not perceivable and the desires these might evoke.
