Paintings is a collection of photographs and graphic visual explorations. Van Leeuwen turns her gaze on trees, capturing small details and turning them into endless landscapes reminiscent of abstract paintings. Blurring the line between the literal and poetic, these ambiguous images reimagine what entails a painting: questioning whether it is strictly a medium or a visual treatment. Paintings is an ode to the transformative powers of photography and design, revealing the grandness of trees one inch at a time.
