At some point, Katrin Koenning’s ongoing series Glow will come to a natural end. She’ll stop making her black and white photographs of ghostly light peering through faces, bodies and everyday ephemera, and will fold them into a natural conclusion. But for now, this work, which has been evolving for several years, will continue to meander in non-linear bliss, wrapped in various metaphors about impermanence.
Anna Krachey uses photography to transcend everyday objects into highly visceral experiences that encourage viewers to reconsider their otherwise commonplace functions. Her source material includes still-lives, abstractions of household objects and detail shots of found imagery. A cupcake wrapper becomes a floating raft; a patch of denim turns from fabric into a magical black and white apparition. Objects that might otherwise be overlooked are given careful consideration.
