Plinth II
Lisa O'Brien | Photography & Lens Based Media Exploring the traditional elements that we associate with landscape photography, I’m committed to the disruption of surface that is physically altered through a combination of two mediums; photography and printmaking. The objective of the work is to disrupt the perspective of the viewer by the use of transparent panels, effectively multiple views of a single image. These layered views create an uneasy perspective for the viewer by the disruption of any one single viewpoint. The viewers’ physical experience with the piece is of primary importance. When walking through the separate panels, the construction of the image and how the disruption is achieved are revealed. The fragmented view of a natural environment, in a man-made space, opens up a discussion surrounding the natural world. How is it perceived and does it even exist anymore? |
