Anna Gille approaches the classical theme of landscape from a variety of perspectives, in different ways, linking different paths. In her drawings, she combines the view of nature itself and our ideas projected into it. The artist deals with the contrasts between the grown and the cultivated, landscape as nature and design. It is a graphic approach to existing natural places as well as virtual landscapes. From the real experience to the photographic sketch to the work on the drawing in the studio, a transformation takes place; the differences between the actual and imagined places dissolve in the encircling of the motif. The main point is to open up the structural core. The absence of any narrative elements in the result allows an openness and ambiguity that detaches the works from their origin. In their final form, they are committed only to themselves. Anna Gille’s conceptual approach touches on central issues of landscape representation. It is the artist’s achievement to realise intense images of nature in this borderline area and in this way and to open up new possibilities for the tradition-saturated theme and to gain a new form of beauty from it.
