Photography as scripture of light
Esther Ségal's work can be reduced into gender or method, even her first series was devoted to outside landscapes.
Step by step, she sensed the distance between reallity and its referencies. She took the option of photography as the possibility to create light. Prints becoming a skin surface with obvious traces. Esther Ségal is using the out of focus as bounds between writing and image, between visible and unvisible. She is inspired by Painting and the abstraction and attempts to push back representation of art by picturing the sacred.
