Having never experienced the Australian outback, Ariella Friend makes sense of the natural environment through her reliance on digitally generated imagery. In this way, Ariella's perception of what is real and what is imagined is distorted. In A Constructed Landscape, Ariella's colourful compositions, reminiscent of Kazimir Malevichs geometric paintings, attempt to objectify the landscape while being affected in some way by technical glitches. Through the use of found materials and the process of cutting, painting and assembling dynamic sculptural forms emerge, and the dualities of absence and presence are felt.
