scans

The scanner is the most used peripheral that is connected to my computer. Although it is designed to copy documents it is perfectly useable as a kind of flat-bed camera that can record three dimensional objects. My artwork consists of prints that are the result of scanning collages of found objects which are combined into a semi-abstract version of landscape pictures.

Pale Blue Dot

Today we can be fascinated by the prospect of seeing Earth from such a distance that it can be depicted by just a few pixels. The 'blue dot' image is a radical and though provoking summation of our planet, but there is an history behind the picture which can be traced back to an event 47 years ago.

Fauxscape

Since its emergence from the domination of history painting in the 16th century, landscape art rose to high fashion in the 19th century and back to such relative obscurity that now the indexes of many art history books do not list it.
