LE POINT AVEUGLE | NATASCHA NIEDERSTRASS

With this new exhibition, Niederstrass focuses on how our gaze spontaneously seeks traces of invisible worlds in images, in search for references that might belong in the spiritual realm. Thus, Recoleta Cemetary was offered to her as a great starting point for the developement of this new body of works. The photographs presented in Le point aveugle aim to preserve as much as they transform. Produced in Argentina using silver film, the artist then digitized the photograph’s negatives and digitally post-processed the images. Niederstrass hence questions Benjamin’s intuition as she tries to make visible what our perception first makes invisible.
