Information
In Lena Keller's landscape paintings, a melancholy mood drifts across the canvas like a gentle breeze, almost lovingly wiping away any brush marks that might suggest a personal touch. Keller utilizes computer-manipulated digital images as templates and virtual filters to exaggerate colors, contrast lights, smooth and flatten details. This is a reference to the tools everyone carries in their pockets, on Instagram, or in image editing apps. Now digitally produced by humans, landscapes have become a contemporary expression of mood rather than a representation of nature.
