Tereza Kozinc & Hannah Schemel: Roots

You're cordially invited to join us for the exhibition opening on Wednesday, 20th November 2024, at 7 pm at Galerija Fotografija.

The exhibition titled Roots is the first large-scale presentation of the artists Tereza Kozinc and Hannah Schemel at Galerija Fotografija. At first glance, it seems that the works of the youngest generation of artists represented by the gallery could not be more different. Both approach their subjects with a sovereignty and with elaborate authorial styles that are immediately recognisable and distinguishable from one another. If we look closely, however, we can see many more similarities than differences between the two bodies of work presented: both artists work in search of and out of a need for deeper understanding, and in doing so they map out the horizon between darkness and light. For them, the darkroom is both a refuge and a well-spring, where their absolute commitment to the physical dimensions of the medium and to performance of the analogue processes of developing and fixing both film and photographs comes to full expression.
