Anne Landreman | Viewpoint

In this series, artist Anne Landreman presents a personal viewpoint of the natural world. By definition, a viewpoint can mean an actual place or position from which something is observed. It can also mean a personal interpretation or mental attitude. Landreman explores both definitions by layering images of natural elements such as water, rocks, hills, birds, fish, and trees – devoid of humans but with implications of human interactions. The images are neither realistic nor abstract, but suggestive in ways that allow memory and imagination to be linked through symbolic meaning. 

“My goal is to allow viewers coming from unique vantage points to explore personal meanings or perspectives.”
