The basic material for Landmarks is provided by photographs - taken by the artist on her travels - of architectural objects of various origins. The next step towards the finished work then is to cover their backgrounds with white acrylic paint, thereby releasing the objects. The paint remains somewhat transparent, leaving the urban space surrounding the central image objects detectable. Nonetheless the painting-over of context creates uncertainty – the respective structure now appears as if dropped out of time and space.
