Albarran Cabrera —– InstagramThe Mouth of Krishna #424 Toned cyanotype on glass and mica.“What is space? It’s nothing other than very subtle light”-Proclus Lycius ( 412 – 485 AD).We perceive the space through the interplay of lights and shadows, to such an extent that the fifth-century AD Neoplatonic thinker Proclus Lycius, declared that space and light were the same thing. He defined the space as a “subtle light”; the space is light, subtle, transparent, that wraps the bodies and shapes them..It is generally believed that to have a “good light” one must have “a lot of light”. It may seem that more light will allow you to see the space better, but the quality of the light is even more important than the quantity. .A photograph represents a specific space. It is usual to think that the photographer is always trying to find the right scene when in reality we are always trying to find the “right” light. Light is “right” when its quality and quantity are appropriate for the space and is able to shape it..Sven Nykvist in his documentary ‘Light keeps me company’ says: “Light gives me a feeling of spiritual atmosphere. Light is with you –you do not have to feel you are alone.”.This is one of the prints now exhibited @esther.woerdehoff in the exhibition of our work “Very subtle light”.We wanted to show in this exhibition a set of images where this “subtle light” acquires particular significance showing us reality in a renewed way. -- source link
