Surfaces and Stackable Landscapes | 2015
The series includes a series of photographs which depict minimal ''landscapes'' made of urban, natural and body parts and made of prefabricated objects, such as mobile inventory as symbols of insular vacation - enclaves of a constructed experience typical of a contemporary resting place separated from the local socio – cultural context. In this sense, the viewers can perceive the holiday place as one of the manifestations of a non – place, as defined by Marc Auge. By eliminating the ''permanent'' architecture in photographs, they also eliminate the scenographic aspect of the experience and they potentiate* the very lack of identity of the contemporary tourist experience built from a series of expected, yet comfortingly recognizable details.
