: “conducting online keyword searches for monuments, swiss/french artist corinne vionnet culled thousands of tourists’ snapshots for her series Photo Opportunities. working with around a hundred of photographs of a single monument, the artist weaves together small sections of the appropriated images to create each layered, ethereal structure. famed landmarks appear to float gently in a dream-like haze of blue sky. each construction espouses the “touristic gaze”i, its distorted visual referent functions as a device for memory transport by funneling many experiences into one familiar locale.” — photo opportunities by madeline yale // corinne vionnet.
