Photopsia

Photopsia features installations connected by the concept of projection, derived from the artist’s photographic practice. In a dark room, a pre-recorded image of the outside view slowly emerges on a sealed window, creating a haunting illusion of presence and absence. In a white space, light projected onto quartz crystals transforms the space, where light, movement, and the visitor’s presence are a part of the image-making process. Exploring photographic abstraction’s relationship with time and space, the exhibition challenges the idea of individual perception and reconstructs images as intangible possibilities rather than predefined objects.
