Spotlight Tuesday. Check out a member of PAC’s work from Valerie Van Over “With my current body of work, “Measured Encounters”, I create otherworldly landscape images that investigate the relationship between humans and nature, and perception and reality. Influenced by psychology and philosophy, I'm interested in the ways in which we translate experiences to memory, as well as the tension between nature and artificiality.

I draw upon my love of naturalism, traveling, and collecting memories. By using digital manipulation to intervene in the traditional landscape, I provide a glimpse into other worlds, question the nature of reality, and destabilize trust in the senses. I create several different versions of similar photographs to represent the fluidity and fallibility of memories. I build alternate universes to seduce the viewer with color and artificiality while simultaneously begging the question: how do we know what we see is real?”
