Here is My Landscape I Offer to You

 

Participatory project and photography 2014. 

 

For the project Here is my Landscape I Offer to You I invited the audience at an exhibition to partake in social situation which explored the ownership of a depiction of landscape and the way in which a viewer can take over the control of a photographic image. Participants were invited to view a vast series of landscape photographs which I had taken over the past three years of locations that I have a emotional connection to. Participants were then asked to chose their favorite print from the series which they were invited to take with them, provided that they posed for a portrait with their chosen print. This project took away the choice of the depiction of landscape from myself and left it

in the hands of the viewer only to be taken back by me once I pointed the camera at the viewer.
