Collection: Posters Pattern Landscape
These posters / prints have been created from photographs taken during a trip to Sweden 2011-2012 where Helena had her camera Olympus Pen 1 with her on Ölandssödra Udde, Kalmar and Fårö and Countryside and on the island Öja. Based on them, she has created patterns to enhance the enchanting landscape and light.
Helena wants to test with photographs and see what she could do with all the landscape photographs she brought home with me from the various trips. It was very beautiful landscapes and the photos became a bit dumb of all the beautiful. When she began to see the photographs as elements, she could break up the images and make something abstract of the so realistic landscapes. Try deconstructing and rebuilding. Abstract patterns of landscapes emerged and she began to see something different in each image, began to see what the landscapes consisted of. They lost their boundaries and belonging to the places in which they were taken.
Could it be that landscape is something abstract without nationality. It may just be different types of systems and patterns that we humans cannot delimit.
This digital exhibition is a further development of the exhibition "See the landscape and feel the scale" which was held in 2015 in Karbygård, Täby.
Read more about the exhibition at 5land where Helena tells more. During this exhibition, the landscape images were interpreted by two jazz musicians Sten Berggren and Håkan Goohde who then called themselves Sonic Skin.
Sven Berggren is a trombonist and composer and has belonged to the Swedish jazz elite for many years, including as a fellow musician to the legend Bernt Rosengren and as a member of the traditional Norrbotten Big Band.
