Leif Podhajsky

I am a great admirer of Leif Podhajsky's artworks, especially his work involving symmetry. I feel that his work targets the hyperreality of landscape and the beauty of wildlife to create uncanny images using mirroring techniques to create symmetry and 'infinite' landscapes.

 

Northern Borders (2013) I feel that this artwork creates a sense of uncanny as Podhajsky has taken an image and used symmetry to create something unreal, but recognisable.






















Innerspeaker (2010) Uncanniness has been created here using repetition of imagery to create an infinite effect landscape.




















In Ghostlike Fading (2012) Symmetry has been used here to create a 'super-landscape' it is instantly recognisable as clouds but the symmetry creates a strange feeling and a certain beauty.
