Hits of sunshine
Dries Segers

18 May - 13 June 2018

The photographic work of Dries Segers is based on the idea of uncontrollable images, which are generated by themselves.

Dries Segers explores the boundaries between abstract and figurative photography by creating “accidental” photos.  His analogue techniques enable him to create an image without a camera, using light, space and time. This is the case of his photo series Hits of Sunshine. The process then becomes the result, often leaving room for surprizing colour and form effects, evoking the cosmos, space, and infinity. For the exhibition, in order to illustrate his work, Dries also presented a series of images in sequence with a carousel slide projector. This projection shows an infinite contemplation of clouds crossing the sun.

Dries Segers is born in 1990 in Turnhout, Belgium. He lives and works in Antwerp.
