FLEETING
(PERSONAL)
LANDSCAPE
or how projects connect - work in progress
Travelling provides a person with new stimuli, and through our movement we come, temporarily, in contact with new landscapes that, in the end, enrich our visual references. Photography, gives us the ability to carry the landscape with us, but what happens to our memory and feeling of it?
Leaving a “temporary” landscape we are left with the memory of it, one that evidently changes slightly every time we recall it. In the end, only the essence of the landscape is retained, connected with the sense of movement that emerges from the act of travel.
Through this project I try to capture that feeling by shifting the focus from the landscape itself to the act of viewing it.
With the rise of the covid-19 pandemic and the travelling restrictions, we were all forced to "look inside". The act of viewing a new landscape translated to an act of analyzing already existing ones.
