‘I would like there to exist places that are stable, unmoving, intangible, untouched and almost untouchable, unchanging, deep-rooted; places that might be points of reference, of departure, of origin.’
– Georges Perec, Species of Spaces and Other Pieces
I take, hoard and edit images from trips abroad and then put them in conversation with each other on a table-top. Objects and scrap metal join in.
In the series “On the Island”, the British coastline has opened up conversations between the island and what is afar and someplace else. English grey skies, drizzles and winds: qualities of the island that shape and mould mood, attitude and perception. These nurture a longing or fantasy for warmer tones, palm trees, beach escapes.
What in the end takes the form of a collage is actually a single shot of a small-scale installation in the studio. Between the photographic and the sculptural, multiple surfaces and optical perspectives tell a story of migration and belonging. A desire to orientate oneself within a space of memory, within the space of the image, and amongst the various locations depicted within the composition.
