dnj Gallery artist -- Karen Amy Finkel Fishof

One Day, 2018

dnj Artist, Karen Amy Finkel Fishof is installed in the exhibition "Into The Light", at the Orange Coast Center for Contemporary Arts.  It is held from February 1st - March 31st.

Fishof produces large scale, life size photograms. The camera less medium, captures images with no negative, bringing to life silhouttes of the people and objects she photographs. There is a serendipitous and tactile nature to her work- since the objects and people she photographs lay across the photo paper to capture the image. Fishof creates a unique type of intimacy than reminds us of our relationship to the objects around us and how they define us.
