This series explores landscape as both conceptual and visual construction. Each work uses a variation of classic landscape subject matter created through deliberate digital mediation, including paintings from digital photographs, paintings of digitally combined source-images, altered photographs, or a combination of these techniques. These constructions attempt to tap into the nostalgia inherent in the genre and create resonance between images, symbol, memory and the artwork/object itself. In this way these pictures are about and questioning the language of memory and the self-consious act of looking.
