“When we look at nature we always do it with cultivated eyes, therefore there is no “true” nature but only a construction of it and that construction is what we determine as a landscape, therefore, the word landscape in my work demands an interpretation since the landscapes we recognize are not independent entities, they are not outside of us, they are not separable from our memory, from our stories, from our experiences, from our desires or from the exercise of our freedom.” - María Ossandón Recart
