In From above and beyond, notions of perspective and viewpoint are explored in themes of space and place. Whether looking at the world, an object or a person, perception and stance remain key ingredients in the reproduction thereof. Elements of representation, construct, inspection and imagination invade the picture. Similarly, relationships between the artificial and the real; memory and illusion; grids and models; are explored. At the same time, in the global world, our conceptions of space and time are constantly transformed and imbued with changing ideas about space and place, evidently leading to continually shifting depictions of who, what and where we are.
