C-print on dibond with matte acrylic. Images Mayke Swemle and European Space Agency and Wolfram Freudling (Space Telescope-European Coordinating Facility/European Southern Observatory, Germany) In this artwork a photo of the landscape of La Gomera is combined with a photo of the universe. La Gomera, one of the smallest of the Canary Islands, has captured Mayke’s heart. The island is the source of inspiration for her ongoing project called Fable of the Forest. The ever-changing exuberant landscapes enchant her. The subtropical climate and quiet atmosphere bring her wellbeing and energy. The island is called ‘La Isla Mágica’ by its inhabitants and Mayke Swemle pushes the idea of magic – of the fantastical – in her photographs where giant birds, strange flowers and stars from the sky appear in the forests, mountains and sea of La Gomera.
