Szilvia Bolla explores the flux of photographic images between virtual and physical environments, enabling the viewer’s attention to intake a wider dimension of reality through the perception of colour, substance, and space. The starting point of her multi-dimensional works is analogue photography which she blends with digital UV print and heat-treated plexiglass, thereby revealing the possibilities of abstract photography. Her work encompasses questions of the ever-progressing photographic translation of the external world from obscure process-based to mainstream artefacts. In this context, Bolla attempts to deconstruct both the digital and chemical nature of photography driven by the curiosity to understand and provoke preconceptions and mistranslations of the contemporary photographic image. Expanding its physical qualities through printing processes and their components from light-sensitive paper to digital bitmaps, her work oscillates between image and object, flat rectangle, animated form and compositional play of fragments. As a result, Bolla creates tridimensional photo objects of clear perspex in conjunction with vaporised colour photograms activated by dynamic installation strategies that open onto play with the material and immaterial, the visible and invisible, object and image. Her work offers an escape from bi-dimensional, wall-based photographic conventions to launch the viewer into the fluidity of the medium with an expanded, intuitive and positive approach. The installations address the affectivity of constructed colour aesthetics, digital image reproduction, touchscreen technology and light sensitivity to challenge the photographic image.
