"Path 8"

C-print on Diasec

The work of Eeva Karhu has been strongly influenced by the impressionists, in particular by Monet and Turner. She follows the concept of capturing a moment by using light and colour to create a certain atmosphere. Light as the initial starting point for her work as a photographer implies not only the possibility to transpose a sentiment into a tableau but also serves as the essence of colour. In their result very impressionistic, the method of Karhu´s work is rather cubistic: In one image hundred of various fragments of the same motif canbe seen from numerous different angles.
