Catalogue Essay
For the last fifteen years, Wrede has played a game with illusion and reality in his series Real Landscapes. While the landscape is first created in his mind, the process of taking the photograph is a purely analogue one. Wrede finds the location, stages it with little models, often taken from assembly kits of model railways, then photographs the scene, usually half a metre above ground level, with his large-format camera.
