Pieces of meadow – photographic works of art by Linda Margarete
The meadow pieces are a tribute to biodiversity and the richness of nature, as well as a reflection of a time of disappearance and transformation.
The works are created by combining traditional photographic techniques with contemporary digital means. In doing so, the artist Linda Margarete explores daylight and the plants’ reaction to it, which often requires several hours or even days of waiting and observation.
Light plays a dual role in her works: it is used both as a creative element that influences the creation of the artwork and as a symbol for the transformation of the plants through the incidence of light. The series constantly brings new perspectives into the light. Forms emerge and disappear, previously unseen constellations appear. A game between the visible and the invisible begins.
The artist sees the technical process not just as pure craftsmanship, but as a human experience that satisfies a deep longing for closeness to nature.
Using light as her artistic medium and exposure as a transformative force, Linda Margarete creates works that encourage us to reflect on the fragility of nature and the beauty of life.
Each artwork becomes a symbol and a reminder of positive and infinite processes of change. Linda Margarete invites viewers to immerse themselves in her world and discover the subtle nuances of light and exposure, reflecting both external and internal reality and deepening the connection between art and nature.
Linda Margarete is a photo artist and specializes in analogue and experimental photography with natural elements. In her work, she deals with environmental issues such as the extinction of species. She is interested in the role of humans in the complex structure of the cosmos. In her search for an artistic form of expression as a photographer, she found an approach by experimenting with plants, animals and old photographic techniques. Linda Margarete combines these with digital working methods and discovers art historical references in the process.
