Light accumulates until it finally is. - Drenched Co.
Comment: "Ms Oppenheim's alchemical wanderings take me on a journey through and beyond Barthes' grand project in Camera Lucida. In her photographs, light filtering through thin slivers of a dead tree seem to cleave an image from the wood itself. And to me these photographs are like the "made-up face beneath which we see the dead", as they beautify and momentarily neutralise the forest spirits that press upon our contemporary angst so. I liked her weave best." - JayZee
