I Know I Will See What I Have Seen Before (2015)
A book: Edition of 300, 20 x 26 cm, 112 pages, 58 colour and 32 b/w plates
published by Lodret Vandret (out of print)
A series of pigment prints, framed and unframed, varying sizes and materials
Looking at Austria and how it is constructed and constituted within a common image space, the concept of mountains, of an alpine landscape that functions as surface for multiple projections is prevalent; be it within the classic 1960s Heimatfilm, advertising, or political propaganda.
I Know I Will See What I Have Seen Before aims towards reconstructing and abstracting this mountainous visual space via various methods of image production, ranging from appropriated scanned material, digitally altered photographic images, studio settings etc., whilst also discussing the images’ productional circumstances. The works depart from their indexical referents, creating possibilities to become different images. One mountain can signify a different mountain, clouds can be petrified, water can become dust.
