Artist Statement:
Through the use of existing works (by Sally Rose Renner) and the manipulation of retail reproductions (by Bulb Studios); the artist is questioning the originality of a reproduction and the appropriation or ownership of an image from/for the web site www.iloveleicester.
Focusing on light and dark, altering and enhancing the depth and scale of original images, teasing out memories, as we fill in the blanks that make up the landscapes that we recognise but can now see as another place, such as the Leicester skyline.
