“In this work I seek to present an
alternative representation of the traditional landscape. Rather than one
continuous image, the environment is dissected into several close-up images.
These are presented altogether, so that as a whole they form a gestalt of the
location. By having a more intimate perspective in each individual image, I
intend for the viewer to perceive the essence of the environment. My aim to
represent the landscape with more realism is a shift from the dream-like
panoramas I have created previously. For this reason I have also chosen not to alter
the photographs with cross processing or digital manipulation which have been
key techniques I have used in the past.” Jessica Sanders 2011
