‘AS IT IS MEANT TO BE’| UTRECHT
As an artist I want to have as much control as possible over the environment the light and the scene. However, a lot of historical cities have been buried under roads, unattractive modern buildings, parked cars an bicycles, and countless other distractions. For example, The dominance of automobiles have led to entire stretches of historic city centers being replaced with asphalt, narrow streets overcrowded with parked cars, and the urban landscape disrupted by intrusive traffic signs.
"As It Is Meant to Be" explores the takeover of historic cities by modern, unaesthetic additions.
As an artist inspired by the cities and landscapes of 17th-century paintings, I look in awe at how the city was originally intended to be.
Through extensive image editing and the careful compositing of various pictures, I have created an image of Utrecht as its original builders envisioned it—free from parked cars and bicycles, traffic signs, advertisements, stacked terraces, and dormer windows that first disturb the peace and harmony of this scene.
