As we gaze into the projection’s hazy woods, are we looking outward or within?
Judith Röder’s artworks explore the physical, aesthetic, and metaphorical properties of glass, focusing on its translucent qualities and light-filtering capabilities. Both of her pieces use silent images of nature, water and forest imagery as a metaphor for human longing and introspection, transforming the woodland into a space of indefinable yearning. Her depiction of trees obscured by mist creates a liminal space where the viewer’s gaze fluctuates between perceiving both the material and immaterial, mirroring the experience of being lost in thought while surrounded by nature. Röder’s works invite a slow, meditative observation, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the gentle movement of the haze and fog above the canopy of trees. By presenting these natural scenes through layers of glass and projection, she creates a distance that paradoxically draws the viewer closer, encouraging a deep, almost meditative engagement with the imagery.
