Interior landscape

Framed winter landscape painting of a river and bare trees hanging on a wall covered in busy brown patterned wallpaper, with the frame centered in the image.

Interior landscape. 2022.

A winter river painting hangs inside a field of retro wallpaper, one quiet landscape floating in the middle of another louder one. The framed scene is all soft blues and snow, a calm, almost nostalgic vision of nature, while the surrounding wall repeats its ornate brown motifs over and over like a tapestry that never ends. The photograph is less about the painting itself and more about that collision of worlds, the way domestic decoration turns a borrowed view into an object, and how the frame becomes a window, a barrier and a decorative shape all at once.
