La fragilitat mediambiental, la memòria i les empremtes perdurables de l’acció humana.

A Topographies of Fragility, Ingrid Weyland (@ingridwey ) viatja des del cap d’Hornos fins a l’Àrtic a la recerca de paisatges que ofereixin silenci, contemplació i equilibri emocional; paisatges que semblin aliens a la presència humana. Després de fotografiar-los, arruga i transforma còpies d’aquestes mateixes imatges.

Aquest gest reflecteix  la manera com sovint ens relacionem amb la natura mateixa: com una cosa que podem utilitzar, consumir i llençar sense pensar-hi dues vegades.

La fragilidad medioambiental, la memoria y las huellas perdurables de la acción humana.

En Topographies of Fragility, Ingrid Weyland viaja desde el cabo de Hornos hasta el Ártico en busca de paisajes que ofrezcan silencio, contemplación y equilibrio emocional; paisajes que parezcan ajenos a la presencia humana. Tras fotografiarlos, arruga y transforma copias de esas mismas imágenes. 

Ese gesto refleja la manera en que a menudo nos relacionamos con la propia naturaleza: como algo que podemos utilizar, consumir y desechar sin pensarlo dos veces.

Environmental fragility, memory and the lasting traces of human action.

In Topographies of Fragility, Ingrid Weyland travels from Cape Horn to the Arctic in search of landscapes that offer silence, contemplation and emotional balance; landscapes that seem untouched by human presence. After photographing them, she crumples and transforms prints of those same images.

This gesture reflects the way we often relate to nature itself: as something we can use, consume and discard without a second thought.

Spotlight on: Ingrid Weyland

We are delighted to introduce Ingrid Weyland (b. 1969, Argentina), whose work we are showing for the first time in our current group exhibition, Roots. On display now in the Print Sales Gallery until 15 November 2026!

Weyland’s photography-based sculptural practice highlights the beauty and wonder of the natural world while drawing attention to its fragility. She is particularly drawn to pristine landscapes seemingly untouched by human presence and describes the places she photographs as spaces for connection, contemplation, and introspection.

Her Topographies of Fragility series transforms these landscapes into sculptural objects as Weyland manually twists, folds, and crumples the paper, challenging the traditional two-dimensional photographic image. The act of manipulating the print becomes a metaphor for human intervention in the natural world, while the materiality of the paper creates a connection between the material and the landscapes depicted. The final compositions explore layers of potential and possibility – the remnants of untouched landscapes still visible underneath the central crumple zones.

Weyland offers a combination of 2D and 3D archival pigment prints from this series which are available to acquire from the Print Sales Gallery. Do visit us to see her ‘Topographies of Fragility LI, 2021/2025’ sculptural piece in-person and view the newly arrived portfolio! Explore Ingrid’s work on our website 👉 tpg.org.uk/ingrid
