Sybren Vanoverberghe, Conference of the Birds

master beeldende kunsten - fotografie

NL

Conference of the Birds shows an outtake from an analysis of the correlation between time and place. How do places appear and disappear? How do we attach meaning to a certain site and in what way can photography  deal with deconstructed icons in comparison to the (a-)historical palm tree sticking its tongue out towards the straight forward photographed Iranian landscape. 

You see composed images of desolated ruins, artefacts and cultural heritage sites. Besides these photographs we also see the decor of a palm tree village. Here the photographs move in closer to the landscape in comparison to the other places documented. The installation is composed of framed photographs accompanied by a book that will be published by Art Paper Editions in September 2019.
