NEW YORK, NY.- Miles McEnery Gallery announced the representation of the photographic artist Liz Nielsen. Nielsen will have her first solo exhibition with the gallery in the fall of 2022.

Liz Nielsen is an experimental photographer, who works without a camera to create abstract photograms in the darkroom. Nielsen’s light painting technique refers to her process of exposing light-sensitive paper to handmade negatives and various light sources that she then processes using traditional photographic chemicals. Her darkroom innovations take on a performative nature, simply reserved for an audience of one. Each photogram is completely unique and can range in scale from intimate to substantial.

Deeply interested in expanding the boundaries of the photographic medium, Nielsen’s vibrant and luminous abstractions transform preconceived notions of traditional photography. Influenced by her philosophical studies, she uses photography as a way to investigate visual cognition. Nielsen is fascinated by light because it is both tangible and ethereal—it surrounds us, and as she says, “it has the incredible power to shape space, infuse emotions, and transcend time.”

Liz Nielsen (b. 1975, Wisconsin) received her Master of Fine Arts from the University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL; her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL, and her Bachelor of Arts from Seattle University, Seattle,WA.
