The minimalist process-based installation RE returns to the principle of the camera obscura – the elementary optical phenomenon from which photography emerged. A system of black objects captures unrepeatable moments passing through space and light and records them on photographic paper.
Pinhole cameras of varying proportions and depths are created as autonomous artistic objects whose parameters determine the character of the resulting image.
Light passes through a tiny aperture, enters the space of the object, and creates an image on light-sensitive material.
This is not a reproduction of reality, but an image that can emerge only through the action of light, a specific object, and time.
During the exhibition, some of the objects will actually be exposing.
On the final day, the installation will be transformed, and the black objects will be replaced by the developed negatives that were created inside them over the preceding days.
Each image is the imprint of a moment that will never occur again.
The installations leaves us with the question of how much light remains beyond the limits of our vision and perception.
