Galleri Image takes great pleasure in presenting a new exhibition by Camilla Holmgren.

Camilla Holmgren's exhibition " Don't Look Now " reflects with elegant coquettery on the theme of woman as erotic being. Her photographs, taken of women through a woman's eye, are self portraits as well as portraits of a younger woman (Katrine). Desire and eroticism are unveiled simply and effectively in her works, which create both open and closed spaces of intimacy. We, as viewers, are invited into her intimate universe. We are met with inviting, open glances, and we are rejected by hidden faces turning their backs on us. Camilla Holmgren utilises both sides of eroticism's duplicity in her photographs; both private and public worlds unfold themselves at the same time before our eyes.

Time is another theme that plays a major role in Holmgren's universe. Time creates movement and intimacy in these spaces. The photographs are built up as a film scenario, in sequences and series that tell a coherent story. Camilla Holmgren's works portray the relationship between person, space, and time, and show how we stage our worlds amidst the tension of sexual desire.

Camilla Holmgren (born 1972) lives and works at present in Hong Kong. She graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2003 (Sculpture School from 1999-2002 and School of Media Arts from 2002-2003). She has exhibited in Denmark, Syria, Spain, and Germany.

The exhibition is supported by a grant from the Committee for Visual Arts of the Danish Arts Council
