ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Destinations is a collaborative work between artist’s Christoph Heldt and Florence Hupin.  In their edition of large format digital prints on hand made paper they explore the notions and interpretations of destinations that take the form of imagined landscapes.
 
Their body of work was inspired from their travels in Europe, Eastern Europe and North America.  It is graphically charged, where the collaborative process involved a theme of intervention between the artist’s individual interpretations and experiences of a particular place and time.   Each constantly challenging what the other was actually seeing with respect to the context of the specific built environment.
