OUR FUTURE exhibition artist | SIEGLINDE VERNIERS
How will the future be? We’ll never know. Lonely trees in a desert landscape? Or a combination of the new world (electricity) with our nature (the camels, desert landscape).
Maybe we don’t have to look at those pictures in this dramatic way. We just have to admire the beauty of our nature and still think positive about our future. Just feel the calmness, stillness of those photos.
I’m Sieglinde, a Belgian photographer, who studied photography at an art academy some years ago. With both of my kids attending university, I now have all the time in the world to spend on my two passions, photography and art.
I live in the UAE, which I find to be a beautiful country with perfect light and landscapes. Why landscapes? In stark contrast to everyday chaos, I seek out the soothing quiet, aiming to convey feelings of tranquility, vastness and stillness.
I hope that when people look at my pictures, they experience the same inner calm I experienced behind the camera.
Landscapes have the potential to evoke feelings that we might have forgotten. This is why I prefer not to distract the viewer with an abundance of colours and subjects. My pictures allow the viewer to find exactly that which they are looking for.
