Tanja Pohl

(* 1985 Lengenfeld (Vogtland))

Tanja Pohl's variations of forms and rhythms originate from the industrial landscape. She is particularly attracted by the interplay between the destruction of nature by man and the process of decay by which nature reclaims what has been snatched from it. On the one hand, her landscapes seem to convey security and beauty. At the same time, through the transformations of houses and machines into, say, heads, she plays with our view of the empirical world. (E.W., J.D.)
