How does light feel in the palm of your hand? Does it feel warm and soft, or is it sharp, like a broken piece of glass? Does it feel like holding a secret, or does it, paradoxically, shroud everything in darkness? Holding Light is an exhibition signed by artist Irina Dumitrașcu Măgurean that follows her never-ending search of capturing light in its most curious and unexpected forms. While others refrain themselves to merely admiring the way the rays of light are interacting with various surfaces and shapeshift depending on the angle of refraction, Irina manages to transform this intangible phenomenon into one-of-a-kind pieces of art that remain frozen in time. What may seem at first a collection of carefully selected pieces of multicoloured glass, will slowly reveal itself as a contemplation of time, light and what could be hidden beneath the shadows.
