4 August- 15 September 2007, Focal Point Gallery, Southend-on-sea, UK

ROGER HOPGOOD / MANDY LEE JANDRELL/ PETER OETZMANN, JUNG-A YANG

This exhibition brings together the work of four photographers who each, through the use of fictionalised rural scenes and backdrops, explore contemporary notions of landscape and our relationship to the natural world. From different cultural perpectives all of the artists examine our romanticised view of landscape, questioning our gap between our perceptions and the real. The works also highlight the duality of our desire to surround ourselves with depictions of nature whilst the reality is constantly eroded around us.
