The Presence Between Light is a solo presentation by Simona Popovic, where she captures light through photography. Whether casted or obstructed, the conceptual ambiance of light is the focal point of her artistic practice and the exhibition.
Popovic invites viewers into a realm where light becomes a metaphor for myriad emotions, experiences, and existential reflections. All of the light in the images naturally emanates from the sun through passages such as pathways, archways, tunnels, windows, doors, and entrances.
The exhibition displays different techniques including archival pigment print, photogravure, and copper plate etching. Showcasing a curated selection from her ongoing series, which captures themes either portraying the passage of time, a state of being in-between, or an atmospheric quality. Notably, Popovic developed a unique process that melds archival pigment printing with copper plate etching, as shown in The Presence of Light #1 (2024). Each work undergoes a meticulous process by the artist to support and capture the presence of light.
Simona Popovic is a Danish-Serbian artist, lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. She is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, DK.
