22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
glimpse of light

The photograph shows a lamp on the outside of a house at night reflected only on itself. In my artistic work I place light at the center of my observations. The medium that makes things visible, but often remains itself invisible. I explore the question of how light presents itself to people. What light shows and what it conceals is therefore a central question of my examination of the phenomenon of light.
