Here Somewhere

Here Somewhere involves a spatial drawing installation that relies on real and fictitious views of urban architectural structures to develop a new cityscape, questioning how one perceives urban landscapes and their landmarks. By abstracting, disrupting, transforming and fragmenting real information from the source photographs, the original locations are obscured, and along with added fictitious elements, become part of the completed image. In this process a special paradox arises: abstraction that serves to eliminate the borders between the real and the fictive, the gap between memory and imagination, and also functions a means to establish logical relations between different parts and elements of urban landscape. The exhibition takes into account visual perception, the inability of the viewer to instantly embrace a plethora of information, and on the fact one’s perspective is predisposed by experience.
