Extended Memory II is a 2010 by Lena Athanasopoulou, held at Metropolitan Organisation of Museums of Visual Arts of Thessaloniki – MOMus.
This painting shows a landscape that looks a bit strange. It's made from a photo of a fake landscape image. The artist used this image to explore how our memories of places can be different from reality, and how they can be influenced by where we are and what we want. To learn more about this kind of photography, look up the technique: sfumato.
Lena Athanasopoulou can sit in a café for hours, watching strangers’ faces shift as they scroll through their phones.
