Beyond the familiar reality
With Wonderland, GOTT&GILZ expand their visual language with a new dimension: For the first time, a series of works is created whose photographic starting images are completely digitally processed.
Bright colors, graphic structures, and artificially created pictorial spaces determine the compositions. Bodies merge with ornamental forms, become superimposed, distorted, and placed in new visual contexts. The original photography increasingly recedes into a separate pictorial world.
The works move between fantasy, corporeality, and visual exaggeration. Familiar forms lose their clarity, natural and artificial elements overlap, and compositions emerge that follow less an external reality than the possibilities of artistic imagination.
Wonderland blurs the boundaries between photography and digital painting, between reality and fiction. The images open up a space where habitual ways of seeing and notions of reality lose their self-evidentness.
