On small-format LCD screens, we look at images uploaded to the Web from the Finnish transport authority, which show the road conditions in northern Scandinavia. Stadler downloaded thousands of still images from webcams in a sparsely populated area of Finland, which are only visible for a short time online before being deleted. Stadler deliberately composes the digital image sequences in 'We see the whole picture' in order to condense the flood of images into subtle, narrative everyday moments. He succeeds in wresting images with surprising insights out of this supposedly barren landscape. (Text: Nadia Veronese)
