Romina Koopman
Romina Koopman is intrigued by how the digital image can change our perception of reality. She positions herself in the grey area where the tangible and virtual worlds converge, questioning the role of the screen as a border. Her work reflects on how the photographic medium, within the digital era, creates a new ever-evolving truth.
She approaches photography as a shape-shifting medium, rejecting the image as a flat surface; a view expressed in the materialization of her work: digital and analogue. This translates into a wide range of printing techniques that are often presented together in multimedia installations, focused on challenging our habits in today’s image consuming society.
