Gina Soden spent the night in this deserted hotel, making her way to the top floor in search of a room with the best protection from the rain and wind. There was scaffolding everywhere, the floor was shaky, and the staircase was extremely difficult to photograph. She used a superclamp to secure her camera, which she then fastened to some scaffolding. Because she isn't very tall, she felt a little uncomfortable leaning over to set up the camera for the shot. It was a massive hotel in Italy with an amazing view that was well-known at the time but is now completely abandoned and awaiting renovations.
The photographic work of Gina Soden is incredibly poetic. She manages to give these unusual places a beauty they’ve either lost or never had to start with. With her pictorial treatment and a lyrically artistic approach the artist awakens a magic that inhabits these places and embellishes them, through her detailed compositions, with a triumphant aspect. The colours astonish, the light, almost divine, bedazzles and the haunting disorder of these places seems somehow to be appeased.

Gina Soden
Gina Soden, artist and photographer, is available at Wychwood Art. At the heart of Gina Soden’s photography is a preoccupation with abandoned structures and locations. Based in London, she travels widely to undisclosed sites throughout Europe and explores the boundaries of beauty, decay, nostalgia and neglect. The genesis of each piece is often the unique architectural character of each location, heightened by their painfully slow transformation after years of abandonment.

- Sharon's Sunroom 1/5 - A photograph of carefully curated collected itemsBy Shani MootooLocated in Bloomfield, ONKnown for her photographic portraits of interior spaces, Shani Mootoo reveals the curious and often emotive personal narratives of her subjects. This giclee print by Shani Mootoo is editioned, 1/5. The work is matted, framed. Unframed size is 21 x 31.5 inches. It is also available in two other sizes, 12 x 28 (framed 21 x 27 inches, edition of 10, $2,000); and 16 x 24 inches (25 x 33 inches framed, edition of 8, $2,600.). Mootoo describes how this image was created: "I was at my printer's studio working on a body of photographs when we were interrupted by a customer who needed his attention for a few minutes. I agreed on a pause so that that customer could be accommodated, and my printer suggested I roam the garden, as there was a lot to see there. Just before the exit to the garden was a room crammed with pastel knick-knacks. A glass sliding door stood closed between me and this room, which seemed to be a combination of very special private space and a storage room. I immediately had the sense that I was seeing a photograph waiting to be taken and, as I had my Sony Rx100m7 camera around my neck, I ran back to my printer and asked if I could go into the room. He generously said, 'By all means, go wherever you'd like". On entering, there wasn't much room to negotiate, but I was struck by the carefully...Category
