CYAN darkroom is happy to announce that we are inviting Ingrid Jacobsen from Stockholm, Sweden.
Ingrid Jacobsen will visit Oslo and be working at our darkroom November 3rd to 28th.
She has an interest in the in-between spaces in our lives and works with collage and montage in an experimental form where light and chance are also co-creators in the dark room. The collage creates abstractions and images between realities and layers of space and time that coincide. She works in a feminist tradition where she addresses spatial issues through a cut up technique and in this way she challenges traditional photography.In her art, Ingrid tries in articulating layers that activate the viewer's vision and which in turn opens up the understanding of what lies between the visible and the invisible. She uses layers of negatives she has taken herself and negatives she has borrowed along with objects she has collected. Her practice combines the random and accidental while distorting visual perception turning the everyday into confused phenomena.
We wil host an open “Meet the artist” meeting at the CYAN darkroom 3. Novemberl 4-5PM
We will host an artist presentation and exhibition of new works at CYAN gallery 26th November 5-9pm
