Framed works
A number of Lisa Rosenmeier’s photographs are composed of multiple pictures. These are called Dissolves and Hardcuts, and they feature concepts and ideas derived from the film world, in which they are used in relation to cuts that appear between scenes. Lisa Rosenmeier created her first collated compositions with several superimposed photos for a decoration titled Off-picture in 1994.
These associative compositions with their ambiguous narratives, often acts as a” voyage into the unknown”. Thus, Lisa Rosenmeier works from a place seen from several different angles, geographical locations, and periods of time. These thin layers of pictures are placed on top of one another until there arises something unknown, giving the viewer a clear sense that here there is something right and, alluring and wondrous.
The registrations of the camera have no central perspective, and they are transformed into viewpoints more closely related to the way in which we sense and perceive the world and recall what we once experienced. When we look at a photograph, everything is always seen in past tense. It depicts something that once was, and which is retained and shown in a new context and as such also transformed.
A recurrent element in Lisa Rosenmeier’s works is her attempts to capture the transient, the fragile, the mutable and the subtle. She seeks to” seize the day” and to work with whatever comes, whatever fascinates, whatever makes one wonder, and that which can provide leads to finding one’s way in a fluid and changing world.
These elements are also seen in the” meta pictures” in Time Passing. By being” turned back into negatives” they refer to photographic negatives or X-rays (the inner and original) and to water and whirls of water in movement.
Here you can see a completed picture for an apartment at Krøyers Plads, where in collaboration with the client I decided on this picture in a shiny acrylic laminate as a professional print with a 100 years’ durability.

All That Light (my teacher told me not to photograph against the light, but I do)
In the summer of 1992 Lisa Rosenmeier was working with the light that surrounds all of us. In All That Light the focus in this series is on the ephemeral gleams of light and hundreds of small suns reflected in the surface of water.
Ongoing project 2006-
2006 was the year when, Lisa Rosenmeier ceased to create large, comprehensive, and extremely demanding installations. Instead, she started concentrating on capturing the light at night, whilst staying on the move. She has explained this new orientation in the following words: “Life is in movement, I am in movement, everything is in movement, nothing stands still or remains unchanged. To be living is to aquiver. Photography must reflect this as well”.
