Biography of Petra Dekker

With my artwork I try to define a new approach and vision to the sheer aesthetics of landscapes and nature. I want to reverse and refresh the timeless perspective of imagination in order to make the underlying visible.

I perceive landscape as a physical space where one can linger, but also as a mental space, as poetic consciousness. My paintings, photographs and short films are all about atmosphere, what transcends it and the longing to be seized by it.
