Amy Friend (*1974, CA) creates multi-layered photographs that transport viewers into an emotional dream world. She devotes herself with great intensity not only to such issues as identity and the past but to the medium of photography as such. A sense of nostalgia runs like a leitmotif through her work, based, for instance, on family pictures or vintage photographs. She informs the enigmatic images of her insightful series, “Dare alla Luce”, with a new radiance by adding a scattering of small, dancing dots of light to the memories they convey. Luminous and silent at once.
