Artist's statement
Sara Arnalds works often explore human interaction with the surrounding environment,as well as traces of moods and memories carried by physical objects removed from their original context.She creates scenes where themes and subjects often include man-made structural leftovers or other human interference with the landscape. The resulting images are landscapes and projections on the border between reality and fiction. Her fascination with the human mind and the relation between man and environment has contributed to a number of works, among others There is no way out and The inner sublime. The series Tidal wave explores the total absence of landscape, with the bare sky as only backdrop.
In the series Hands, there is a distinctive conflict between the cleanliness of presentation and the soiled and heavily used objects. In the way that the gloves are presented as isolated and dissected objects removed from their bearer, we are invited to seek their original context based upon their physical imprint and our imagination.
