Country Houses in Southern France - Limited Edition 4 of 20 Photograph

I'm a self taught multi media artist. I rely on photography, but don't photograph "reality" itself. I create a transitional, dreamlike reality made from paint, paper, cardboard, miniatures and found objects. Figures appear in those photographs, mostly myself or people from historical photos, digitally inserted into the sceneries. As they are the only inhomogenous objects in the working process, the human figures are questioning the "cardboard reality", they are out of place, trying to fit in. What is reality, what perception, dream, or imagination? Reoccuring subjects of my work are belonging, home, displacement and the questioning of reality.
