Solo Exhibition – A New Earth – Ultra Large Format Glass negatives

Dear viewers,
It took too long from my last post. After seeing this vlog, you know why. It was really an intense period of my life. And after this exhibition I had a week long workshop at Univerza Nova Gorica. Anyway, here it is. Please let me know what you think about the show.
Some of you are following my vlogs regularly and you could see how this project developed.

The exhibition is in ZRC, Novi Trg2, Ljubljana, Slovenia and it’s open until 17.7.2021

Here is the playlist of the project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJV9WNqmYqI&list=PLg7_oeBZM8DmTV0uWmiangqgmQM8zKZ5s

Thank you for your attention, may the Topshit be with you!

Exhibition in Bratislava during Month of Photography

.
During Month of Photography in Bratislava I was invited by Gallery Photon, to exhibit in the gallery of Embassy of Republic Slovenia. I decided to try something different, to present my work in old windows. I’m presenting a very intimate story of fears and delights being a parent and the window frames are emphasising hand made craft of my photographs and the effect of looking through window inside. I was very satisfied with the effect although needless to say I was full of doubts if this will actually work or make sense. I hope you agree, it does work.

I really wanted to exhibit this project, because as a teenager I saw the exhibition of Sally Mann and her project Immediate Family and this was for me very important personal motivation. Not only her work inspired me to photograph my family, but also it was in Sally Mann’s work I first time saw a 19th Century hand made photography used in contemporary art. On top of that, I am in the middle of divorce and setting up this work was so painful. I was totally ambushed by emotions from the past, while working on the exhibition. You don’t see that in the video, of course, but photographs are full of it.

Thank you to Gallery Photon, Dejan Sluga, Miha Colner, Embassy of R. Slovenia in Bratislava, Month of Photography in Bratislava and of course my family, Lučka, Brina and Alenka Peterlin.

Here is a video few years old, where I’m talking about A Father’s Tale project, early version of the project.

From Revela-T, the festival of analogue photography

Last week I was in Barcelona and in Vilassar de Dalt, in Catalonia, Spain. There was the festival of analogue photography, called Revela-T. I had two workshops and a demonstration, so some days I didn’t even had time to properly eat, whereas to do videos and photographs of the event, thus a short, but cute video. I hope you will like it. I recommend to visit it next year. I know I will! Next workshop is in Berlin. All my workshops are sold out, I will make a schedule for the autumn and winter, hopefully before the New Year’s Eve!
