Kenny Ros is essentially a landscape photographer, further developed as an artist. He transgresses genre by mixing landscape- and documentary photography with fine art.
His attraction to the landscape, he says, is ‘to approach a unique perspective and a haunting perception, beyond the ordinary representation of reality’. ‘Because of a progressive muscle disease, I can’t enjoy the naïve beauty of traditional vistas. When I find the strength and assistance to work on location, I embrace my pain and suffering and use that as a reflection to create an intriguing scenery, roughly based on the captured landscape and strengthened by the better angels of my unconscious mind’.
The artistic process of Kenny Ros is based on speculative narratives and re-/deconstructed image making, portraying obscure stories developed by his ‘inner time travels’. His editing workflow is a mixture of digital- and handcrafted techniques, which results in textured works on a variety of mediums such as recycled wood, textile and lightboxes.
