House Boat

Nielsen’s work is a contemporary application of one of the best-known avant-garde photographic processes: the photogram. Each unique image is created without a camera by placing objects directly onto photographic paper and exposing them to varied light. Composed of hand-cut shapes, her abstract landscapes float, bursting with color.

In an analog color darkroom, Liz Nielsen uses the original form of photography to record light of various wavelengths on light-sensitive material developed through chemicals. With this technique, she references the Canonical genre of still life, yet grounded within futuristic landscapes. Lost and without scale, her subjects harness the possibility of life beyond carbon forms in the presence of vibrating light.
