Cultural Landscapes XXII

I made the series Cultural Landscapes with scanned or downloaded images from European paintings of landscape, digitally joined with my own photographs of Latin-American sights (Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Mexico, Peru)

My work goes deeper into the fact that representation makes the existence of landscape possible. Representation is a way to make the object real and show it to us. It is the moment the artists starts painting their surroundings on their canvases when the territory becomes landscape. The observation of the artist is a possibility, one look at the world.
