solo exhibition by Yulia Kazban

About

"shadows" is a solo exhibition by a Moscow-based Ukrainian-born photographer Yulia Kazban, opening on the 13th of January in the Hanbury Road Gallery, Bargoed.

Yulia works with film photography and prints her images using traditional techniques, prevalently lith printing. She works with a variety of subjects, from portrait through landscape and cityscape to abstract

As a visual artist, Yulia is reluctant to describe the process of her work or what meaning or context the images may have to her, preferring to let them speak to the viewer themselves: 

It can influence the viewer or not. The viewer can feel the author's intention or not, can find something for themselves or not, feel changes inside or not. 

Often any description is superfluous. I don't like to use words for telling the viewer about the specific context and hold them in the framework. I don't like to pull the work into an invented result.  If I want to create borders for the viewer, I have to create those borders through my work, without instructions and descriptions. 

We at the*kickplate*project agree with this sentiment and will therefore let Yulia's photography speak for itself.  You can find her images on her page and flickr.

Keep your eyes peeled for updates on our blog and Facebook page!
