And how does this self-concept change in different social contexts?
Once again Gamdrup will try to answer these questions by taking the photographical medium to its limit, where the motif slowly dissolves into a mere abstraction only to be recreated into something one could call an experienced landscape. This is not a nostalgic retrospect, but a reflection on what landscape as motif and experience means to us humans.
In Gamdrup’s works the landscape acts as a narrative figure for the social context we find ourselves in. Therefore the landscape as motif is more the point of departure for a conversation about social relations rather than a desire of recreating the landscape documentarily.
